In November, the South Korean artist Do Ho Suh (b.1962) will exhibit his airy spatial structures created in transparent tulle. He recreates life-size corridors, passages, entryways and intermediate spaces from places he has lived in around the world.0Do Ho Suh strives to touch the emotional register associated with the home and which for him is always in motion. The various spaces which, throughout our lives, become alternating homes and which for him also transcend (country) borders, also come to represent various mental states, precisely as life?s manifold emotional processes. Via these portable architectonic spatialities, Do Ho Suh exhibits his fascination with the concept of ?home? seen in the context of a modern human?s global, nomadic existence. What special place is this, what form does this place take and what stories are generated therein? In particular, he examines the psychology that is entailed in feeling at home. 0To accompany the exhibition, an illustrated catalogue will be issued which, in addition to an introduction written by curator Jeanett Stampe also contains an essay by Professor Carsten Thau of the Architect School of the Royal Danish Academy of Art00Exhibition: ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum, Aarhus, Denmark (10.11.2018-17.02.2019).
