Sooyoung SEO presents new works under the theme of the moon jars in the KIAF ART SEOUL 2020.<\/p>\n

One of the most eminent Korean artists Whan-ki KIM especially appreciated moon Jars for their ultimate aesthetic value of simplicity and enjoyed using them as a subject of his works. Soon-woo Choi, the former director of the National Museum of Korea, also highly praised the vivid aura of warmth and geniality.<\/p>\n

Only 20 to 30 of the Joseon Dynasty period\u2019s moon jars exist, and the moon jar was recently sold for 3.1 billion won at auction in 2019.<\/p>\n

Besides, unlike the existing two-dimensional paintings, Sooyoung SEO expresses the thick texture of Korean paper in the form of relief with a modern sense and the density of Mati\u00e8re, which is conveyed by mineral color, adds to the completeness of the work.<\/p>\n
