become self-supporting or completed, or they are incorporated into the finished
work.

healthier to work with.

8. Do Ho Suh Constructs a home
within a home at MMCA, Korea

9. • Artist: DO HO SUH’s.
• ‘Home within Home’
• Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul, Korea.
• A mammoth, transparent fabric reproduction of a three-
story town house fills the exhibition room at MMCA,
Korea.
• Do Ho Suh’s “Home within Home within Home
within Home within Home” is an immersive,
sculptural space constructed from his craft-
characteristic silk medium.
• A full-scale recreation of the residential building
in providence.

10. A heavy-duty metal or aluminum frame, covered
with an transparent fabric with a special coating of
polyvinyl chloride.
‘Seoul Home’ a replica of a traditional korean style
house, where he was raised as a child. the latter
structure is suspended from the ceiling, floating
between the multi-layered panels of semi-opaque,
jade-colored textiles that encompass it.
Suh’s relocation to America as a student precipitated in him a new concept of the home, defined by the ideas of
transcultural displacement and temporal boundaries. veiled in the mesh sheets and entangled between the inside
and the outside, visitors are left to consider these interpretations over their own, and contemplate the ever-
expanding concept of space.

11. A TEMPORARY FLOATING STRUCTURE

14. Creative use of shipping
containers, recycled
materials, pre-fabricated
components, and
innovative temporary
structures – structures
meant for a wide range of
purposes from exhibitions
and expo pavilions to
disaster relief housing,
public places in city nodes
and tourist facilities.
