In a unique partnership with luxury Korean car brand
Genesis, Tate Modern presents ‘Walk The House’, the latest immersive installation by Korean-born artist Do Ho Suh.
The exhibition, which runs until 26th October 2025, showcases some stunning works from Suh, in which he explores the concepts of memories held within ourselves, architecture, and how they collide to make us who we are.
Born in Seoul, South Korea, in 1962, Suh studied fine art at Seoul National University. He headed to the US to continue his studies, earning a Master of Fine Arts in painting at the Rhode Island School of Design and a Master of Fine Arts in Sculpture at Yale.
Much of Suh’s work features architecture and space, often creating large-scale pieces which the viewer can interact with and connect to. One of the key elements of ‘Walk The House’ is an interconnecting corridor of rooms, sculpted using coloured fabric mesh. Suh captures intricate details in the work, such as door handles and light switches — the touch points of a home with which we all interact daily — as he masterfully blurs the lines between sculpture and architecture.
The merging of memories and their impact on identity are central to Suh’s work within ‘Walk The House’, with his childhood home in Korea and his apartment in New York appearing in different guises and forms across the exhibition. In his resin 3D printed sculpture, he goes even further, nestling his childhood home within the apartment block he lived in as a student.
His work is richly detailed and layered, and utterly fascinating. From the large form pieces that depict spatial memories, to the smaller, embroidered and hand-drawn pieces that convey his inner thoughts and feelings, every element of the exhibition is carefully considered and beautifully executed.
The Genesis exhibition ‘Walk The House’ will be open to visitors at Tate Modern, Bankside, until 26 October 2025.
