곽경태 Kwak Kyung-Tae: 확장 Broadening Tradition

Hugomento is proud to present 확장 Broadening Tradition, first U.S. Solo Exhibition by South Korean master onggi and buncheong artist 곽경태 Kwak Kyung-Tae.

In Korea, the beauty of ceramics has long been whispered through the cadence of daily use—a quiet elegance often hidden by sheer utility. Kwak Kyung-Tae’s work seeks to amplify this overlooked grace. By reimagining traditional onggi and buncheong forms, the artist treats heritage not as a fixed relic, but as a living language. These reinterpretations honor their ancestral lineage while asserting a bold, transformative identity for the modern era.

April/May 2026
