Lee Hun-chung
Seven ceramic forms sit quietly on the floor, with an ink painting watching from the wall. Artist Lee Hun-chung invites you to slow down, to remember what it feels like to simply sit and be present.

These aren't functional pots or chairs—they're places for the spirit to rest. Each one shaped by hand, marked by fire, touched by time. Black, brown, earthy colors that feel like pieces of the ground itself.

See those small dots of color on the surfaces? Blue, red, yellow—like gentle breaths of life on the clay. Not decoration, but vitality made visible.

The ink painting continues the same quiet conversation in a different language. Brush and clay, wet and dry, speaking the same thoughts about slowness and presence.

This connects to Korea's long pottery tradition—moon jars, tea bowls that celebrated imperfection, the beauty of human touch. But Lee isn't looking backward. In our digital rush, we need objects that remind us to pause, to breathe, to remember our hands.

Sitting near these pieces, you might notice time moving differently. Your breathing slows. Your thoughts settle. This is what Lee means by "places where being dwells.“

The question becomes simple: Where are you sitting right now, inside and outside, and what are you really facing?
