‘The bowl is the travel of the stars, the pattern that contains the world, and you are the one who shines as the subject.’ (from the artist’s note)
Dunamu Art Cube, located in Anyang, presents 18 pieces of art in Sangha’s invitational exhibition, ‘A bowl made of colors’.
Artist Sang-ha saw the bowl as a ‘human’. The bowl shines brilliantly as if it contains a night sky full of stars.
The bowls of different colors are colorful as if they represent galaxies in the universe. Sky blue, yellow, light green, and pink galaxies shine in various ways, just as each person is different. The bumpy bowl expresses friendly humanity.
The artist saw the process of making a bowl and completing it in a kiln as the process of creating a person. Just as each person has a different time of endurance, the bowls go through the time of enduring in the kiln and are born as vessels to contain what each needs to contain.
The soil that contains the time of the earth is gathered, soaked in water, and formed into a single bowl. Just as humans aren’t perfect, bowls are rough.
A star pattern is engraved on the bowl from the kiln. The bowl shows the time the soil has and the time it was created. A cluster of stars becomes a galaxy, and a bowl becomes a world. Looking at the finished bowl, it is as if you are looking at a universe.
Artist Sangha said, “When you look at a world full of stars, you can feel a certain power and sense the flow of motion that is like eternity.” I can feel it,” he said.
The moment of looking at the bowl is captured and time is engraved on the bowl as a pattern.
Crumbs are strong. Gather and gather to become a composition. It becomes sand, soil, water, and fire. Become a person, become a flower, and make the world that way.
The experience of growing up watching bowls as a child played a big role in Sangha, who is from the southern provinces, seeing bowls as a human being. He substituted the process of a bowl being born into the process of human birth, and saw the time a bowl endures in a kiln as a process of human maturity.
The crooked texture expressed the naivety of humans and also expressed nostalgia for the hometown. If you invest the time you endure in a kiln into your life, each reader will have a bowl.
Noksu Geum, curator of Dunamu Art Cube, said, “People who see the works seem to be looking for their own bowl following thinking regarding it.” .
Just as we are born in a star and return to the star, the bowl contains the journey of life.
The exhibition, which started on the 25th, will run until June 13th, and viewing hours are from 10:30 am to 7:00 pm from Tuesday to Sunday. Closed on Mondays. Viewing is free.
