The Flow, Lee Jong Min

Lee Jong Min Solo Exhibition + TOUCH GALLERY Opening Exhibition
17/11/2022 - 31/12/2022

 

Exhibition Statement:

 

Korean ceramic artist Lee Jong-min engraves the scenery on porcelain in his studio, located in the forest that’s far away from the hustle. With his divine skills, he records the texture of nature attentively on the ceramic piece by piece, day after day.

Through years of observation, his consciousness, hand movements, and even the strands of his hair followed the rhythm of nature and swam in the light with the wind. 

Through carving, ceramics become a figurative carrier. It carries the most primitive and comforting elements. It turns into a breeze, warm sun, tree shadows, and water waves. It is the most poetic combination of natural ceramics.

 

A vessel that could not contain, a hole that could not breathe, a colour that isn’t a colour, that is the awakening consciousness projected on Lee Jong Min’s artwork. Lee’s artworks not only reflect the extremes of craftsmanship, but also passed beyond the essence of containers and ceramics, revealing the deepest spirit within himself. It will be easily forgotten that the work was created by someone, but only focus on how natural the interaction between ceramic and the sun is when the sun shines on the work. Perhaps it is still a container, but it carries the sun, the moon, the time, and the scene. As if it naturally pecks on itself, under the tints of light that happened coincidentally.
