AVAILABLE ARTWORKS BY YONGWON NOH
Jjirasi Vase
Jjirasi Vase explores the intertwined narratives of South Korea's urban landscapes and his own experiences, reflecting on how future generations might engage with traditional art and craft amidst its ongoing transformation. Inspired by the traditional Korean decorative technique of mother-of-pearl inlay, he reimagines images collected from Korean streets, transforming them into PVC stickers for decorative use.
Glitch Series
The Glitch series is a contemporary reimagining of Goryeo celadon aesthetics, where the vase serves as a canvas for the vibrant fragmentation akin to digital glitches, embodying the spirited encounter between traditional Korean beauty and the animated visuals of modern signboard culture.
