The Embassy of the Republic of Korea and STPI are delighted to present “Do Ho Suh: New Works”, featuring latest works by South Korean artist Do Ho Suh developed during his second residency at STPI. Known for his large-scale fabric installations and sublime architectural compositions of past homes, Suh has seamlessly translated compelling three-dimensional forms into the two-dimensional at STPI, with delicate thread drawings embedded in paper. These reflect the transnational dilemma of home and belonging, malleable spaces and memory, as well as the boundaries of identity. The exhibition also showcases Suh’s lithographies, and pastel rubbings consisting of seemingly unremarkable objects that feature in everyday life, such as electrical sockets, door handles and lift buttons. These sculptural pieces represent the architecture of spaces he feels an attachment to, preserving the experience of living in them through these symbolisms. Although personal and largely autobiographical, these works address universal journeys and experiences, prompting viewers to reflect on stories that define their own real and imagined lives.This exhibition is part of the Korea Festival 2015 in celebration of Korea’s 70th anniversary of liberation and 40 years of diplomatic ties with Singapore.
