Ceramic brand in Seoul, South Korea, by Kim Hyeon. Located in the renowned educational hub of Jongno-gu, Kim Hyeon runs a studio where she not only pursues her own creative endeavors but also regularly hosts pottery workshops to introduce the charm of pottery to her students. Although she had a passion for drawing from a young age and majored in Oriental painting in college, she made the decision to venture into the world of pottery after graduating. For her, pottery and painting are like two sides of the same coin, with the pieces she creates from her own hands serving as an extension of her artwork. However, unlike painting, she aims to convey stories through her pottery not just visually but also through the tactile sensations of the clay and the sensory experiences people have when using her pieces. The glazes she creates, inspired by unexpected discoveries and curiosity, are beautiful, and the colors reminiscent of everyday dining are both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Just as clay transforms into sturdy vessels through various processes, you can feel the strength and kindness of the maker in her pottery.
