Charles B. Wang Center is delighted to present Cycles of Clay: The Ceramic Narratives of Sunkoo Yuh, an exhibition exploring the profound creativity of Sunkoo Yuh, an artist who navigates the intersections of cultural heritage and contemporary expression. Yuh’s ceramic sculptures combine bold colors, evocative imagery, and intricate figures layered vertically to evoke histories and community connection. Themes of Buddhist cycles, Confucian ideals, and sociopolitical commentary permeate his works, which includes monumental pieces like Long Beach Summer and Athens Winter. Through experimental glazing and unpredictable firing techniques, Yuh captures the tension between order and chaos to create visually compelling sculptures that explore life’s beauty, fragility, and complexity.

Join The Wang Center for both the artist lecture and opening reception on Friday, March 7th. They look forward to welcoming you for engaging conversations over refreshments, good company, and art!
