91 - Seung-Ho Yang

Seung-Ho Yang Vase Stoneware Circa 1990 H26 D28 cm A ceramic artist of Korean origin, Seung-Ho Yang approaches the vase as a form of meditation on the material. This piece from the 1990s, nearly as wide as it is tall, exudes a calm and substantial presence, far removed from any desire to create a spectacle. The stoneware retains the marks of the fire and the variations that high-temperature firing creates on its surface. In the tradition of Korean and Japanese ceramics that value simplicity and imperfection, this piece appeals to lovers of contemplative ceramics, where functional form meets sculpture.
