Sam Chung
"Flared Cloud Vase", Ceramic, Vessel Form, Porcelain, Overglaze Paint

2023

About the Item

Sam Chung lives and works in Tempe, AZ. He is a ceramic artist and Professor of Art at Arizona State University. As a second-generation Korean-American, he explores pottery that reframes historical ceramics from a cross-cultural perspective and explores the metaphorical role of the vessel. In his current work, he references traditional Korean cloud motifs and pottery shapes while juxtaposing past with present through his vivid, graphically painted imagery. The clouds represent a phenomenon that is constantly in flux and correspond to his own questions of belonging within or outside of a culture. Sam has exhibited his work nationally and internationally at Duane Reed, Harvey Preston (f.k.a. Harvey Meadows) Ann Linnemann Gallery (Denmark), ClayAKAR, Greenwich House Pottery, Sherry Leedy and Lacoste Gallery. He is the recipient of a yearlong Fulbright grant allowing him to tour South Korea, teach at the Ewha Womans Univerisity and Korea National University of Cultural Heritage, and design two limited edition lines of dinnerware ceramics dinnerware factory KwangjuYo.
