Fun Fact
The surface of this vessel is made by using the technique called myeon-chi-gi, a “cutting surface” technique.
Description
The artist, Ik-yung Kim (b. 1935) is a first-generation modern ceramic artist in Korea. She successfully carried on the legacy of the Joseon period Korean ceramic tradition, making a strong statement about a ceramic object as a work of art, rather than an utilitarian tool. The white porcelain, with its carved architectonic surface, highlights Kim's interpretation of ritual vessels of the Joseon period and her response to European minimalist art.
