Do Ho Suh’s major exhibition at Tate Modern presents a profound exploration of what constitutes 'home.' Using gossamer fabric to create immersive installations, Suh invites visitors to engage with the concepts of belonging, comfort, and community. His works, including 'Nest/s,' blur the lines between interior and exterior spaces, emphasizing our memories and movements within these environments. The exhibition raises critical questions about shelter and identity, particularly in a world where many people's basic needs for safety and community are increasingly threatened.
Is home a place, a feeling, or an idea? That's the lofty yet immanently relatable question at the heart of Do Ho Suh's major survey open now at Tate Modern. The London-based Korean artist (previously) explores notions of belonging, connection, comfort, security, and familiarity in large-scale installations that replicate his own homes in Seoul, London, and New York, among a range of vibrant multimedia works.
Issues around shelter, safety, and community are inextricably tied to how we perceive home, especially when for many around the world, those basic needs are in constant peril or upended without warning. Suh asks timely questions about the enigma of home, identity, and how we move through and inhabit the world around us.
