Suki Seokyeong Kang · 2021–22

This is Mat Black Mat 170 x 380 — a work by the Korean artist Suki Seokyeong Kang, two thousand twenty-one to two thousand twenty-two. Woven, dyed hwamunseok and thread — about 3.8 by 1.7 meters. It is one of the largest things in this museum — about 23 times the area of a typical work here. Somewhere in there: the textile pattern, and the door.

Medium Woven, dyed hwamunseok and thread · Dimensions 12' 5 5/8" × 66 15/16" (380 × 170 cm) · Credit Fund for the Twenty-First Century
