About the Item

SaeRi Seo Blossoming amidst adversity, 2023 porcelain, black clay oxidation 1250℃ 20 x 14 x 14 cm 7 3/4 x 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 in. SAERI SEO b. 1992, Korea The ‘Moon Jar’ is a representative Korean traditional pottery of the Joseon Dynasty that has contributed the elevated reputation of Korean ceramics worldwide. Historically, the moon jar was associated only with male roles, as women were not allowed to produce or access the studio due to the belief that they brought bad luck. To overcome a childhood and adolescence coloured by this belief (and accompanying abuse), SaeRi began destroying her works to reveal her trauma, incorporating shapes from Korean representative ceramics as her cultural background influenced her mental struggles. By detonating the beautiful pottery, she stepped forward and started communicating with the world. SaeRi Seo studied ceramics for her BA at Seoul Women’s University, and lwent on to complete a Masters in Ceramics and Makers at Cardiff Metropolitan University in 2022. Recent exhibitions and awards include: NAE Open 2023, New Art Exchange (2023), RBA Rising Stars Exhibition, The Royal Over-Seas League (2023), and nominated as a finalist for the BADA Art Award (2022). SaeRi Seo was the winner of the Young Masters Emerging Woman Artist Award in 2023.
