Artist/Maker
Place of origin

Suku Park, born and educated in Korea, resided in Sweden and Finland between 1977 and 2004. His white porcelain is elegant and restrained in design and execution, perhaps reflecting the ceramic taste of his native country between 1500 and 1800.

Suku Park's ceramics are domestic in scale, and demonstrate a concern with texture and light, leading a growing number of public and private collectors to include examples of his work.
