The Korean Cultural Centre Australia (KCCAU) is to organise <Day By Day: Korean Ceramics in Daily Life> in partnership with the Korea Ceramic Foundation (KOCEF) from 2nd September to 4th November. This exhibition will introduce a selection of Korean ceramics created using Korean traditional as well as contemporary techniques while focusing on the practical and functional aspects of Korean ceramics in everyday life with its scope ranging from vessels, plates, cups to bowls and many more!
Korean ceramics have long been regarded as the finest in East Asia. The history of Korean ceramics began with the oldest earthenware from around 8,000 BC. While receiving outside influence and interacting with other cultures, Korean pottery has developed into a distinct style of its own, such as the Moon Jar and the style of painted decorations.
In this exhibition, a group of emerging and established Korean ceramists showcase their handmade pottery with utmost calibre utilising a variety of practices and techniques handed down across multiple generation.
