Overview

Enter the captivating world of leading contemporary artist Do Ho Suh

Korean-born, London-based artist Do Ho Suh invites us to explore his large-scale installations, sculptures, videos, and drawings in this beautifully designed and illustrated survey of his work, raising timely questions about the enigma of home, identity, and how we move through and inhabit the world around us.

Through his extraordinary immersive artworks, Suh draws us in to think about belonging, collectivity, and individuality, connection, and disconnection, examining the intricate relationship between architecture, space, the body, and the memories and the moments that make us who we are. From the fragility and minute detail of embroidered threads to the monumentality of his larger installations, Suh’s work is profoundly thought-provoking and enriching.

Text by artists and art historians, as well as a conversation between Suh and British artist Janice Kerbel, further enrich our experience of this remarkable body of work.
