Water
OK. Listen, this series is everything to me. I have been wanting to make pieces that represent my Korean heart and heritage for a long time.
Uprooted from northern Korea during the US occupation, my family and lineage before my grandparents was severed. This kind of severing does not just apply to family histories, but to the history of the entire Korean people. The art and culture of that history can never be recovered, but maybe I can connect the past and present with these everlasting ceramic pieces.
“Water” takes the symbolism from the Korean flag, which holds all the ancient elements of Air, Earth, Fire and Water. Exposed clay allows your plant to breathe. The planter floats elevated on the included drainage plate.
Dimensions
5.75”W x 6.5”H (with drainage plate, 6”H without)
