Do Ho Suh

"Suh (b. 1962) is known for large-scale, finely crafted sculptures that take various forms, including constructions using a multitude of small plastic figurines and floating architectural structures made of gauzy fabric. Trained first in Korean ink painting and then at the Rhode Island School of Design and Yale in the ?0s, Suh is uncommonly good at marrying socially charged imagery with an elegant material sensibility; his works trade both in self-conscious conceptualism and sexy surfaces."

Loving the work of Korean artist Do Ho Suh. This series is titled "REFLECTION" and was exhibitied at the Lehmann Maupin Gallery NY in 2004.



More relevant to my project is his project "Seoul Home/L.A. Home", which was based on Suh's transient past after growing up in Korea and moving to New York.
