Moon Houses
Porcelain, underglaze
6 x 5.5 x 4.25 in
This is a sculptural Moon House made for Daeboreum 대보름 2024. Before the final firing, I ceremoniously set the sculpture aflame inside a paper mache egg while waiting for the full Moon to rise. The figure's body is the house with open hands to receive the and hold the Moon's spirit. Humanoid with the face of a dragon, the figure not only evokes the 2024 zodiac, but also what it means to find the spirit inside one's self.
