β€œHere and There: Navigating the Cultural In-Between” explores a diverse range of works from Korean ceramic artists that negotiate the complexities of bicultural identities and perspectives.

The exhibition will showcase a diverse range of works from Korean ceramic artists under the theme β€œCurrent”—the nuances of the word entail something that is influx, continuously moving, and malleable (conceptually/physically). It also alludes to presence and a reflection of our most immediate times. The theme β€œCurrent” will be explored through a diverse range of styles and concepts that pertain to identity. Despite the commonality in cultural backgrounds, there is also a unique and complex bicultural perspective as the artists navigate cross cultural influences and ways of making. They are inevitably influenced by the duality of east and west, as well as unique markers of their own histories that are specific to their own lived experiences. This exhibition will highlight subversive forms that cull from history, mythologies, and techniques that explore the nuances of Korean identity.

Exhibiting Artists: Hoon LEE, Sunkoo Yuh, Kyungmin Park, Sam Chung, Gunyoung Kim, YoonJee Kwak, Hayun Surl, Soojin Choi, Audrey An, Jee Eun Lee, Yehrim Lee, Hae Won Sohn, Shin Yeon Jeon, Wansoo Kim, Yeonsoo Kim
