'Having left South Korea for New York in 1991, Suh has since become an internationally renowned artist whose primary subject is home – a place and a state of mind that he explores in drawings, sculptures and video pieces, but most hauntingly in the creation of shimmering fabric architectural reconstructions of the houses he has lived in over the years in Seoul, New York and London.
“You find the everyday and the universal in Suh’s art, in his enduring consideration of home, both as a physical space and as something lived,” says his London gallerist, Victoria Miro. “His works can be ephemeral, but they are underpinned by profound thought. They come from places imbued with personal meaning and allow us all to connect with ideas of home and life as a journey.”'
