SaeRi Seo

SaeRi strives to intertwine personal narrative with broader social and cultural influences, creating a visual representation of her experiences. Central to her artistic exploration is the profound impact of the “good child syndrome” that has shaped her identity since her youth. This complex, deeply rooted in societal and cultural expectations, has greatly influenced her journey as an artist.

She addresses this syndrome through a healing and transformative artistic process: the destruction and reimagining of traditional Korean ceramics. This act serves as a metaphorical means of breaking free from the constraints of her past, a cathartic release of emotions, and a symbol of liberation.

This newfound perspective guides her to create works that transcend mere acts of destruction, embodying resilience and beauty.

In her pottery practice, she primarily works with white porcelain. The central technique she employs is throwing, which allows her to shape the foundational forms of her pieces. Once the base shapes are formed, she meticulously handcrafts intricate details, such as delicate flowers, which are then carefully attached to the body of the piece.

She typically fires her pottery within a temperature range of 1220 to 1250 degrees. By using white porcelain as her primary medium, she is able to achieve a sense of timeless elegance and delicacy in her pottery.
