Speaker

Sunkoo Yuh

Sunkoo Yuh is a professor at the University of Georgia, Athens. He earned his MFA at New York State College of Ceramics, Alfred. His work is informed by his personal and intimate experiences in everyday life. Yuh’s ceramic sculpture is composed of tight groupings of various forms including plants, animals, fish, and human figures. While Korean art and religious beliefs inform some aspects of his imagery, his work is largely driven by implied narratives that often suggest socio-political critiques.

Daphne Arthur

Daphne Arthur (b. 1984, Caracas, Venezuela) is an Afro-Venezuelan multidisciplinary artist whose work mobilizes unconventional materials and processes to transform the ephemeral into something concrete. Fluctuating between the experimental and methodical, she combines painting, sculpture, and drawing with smoke, paint, and clay to compose realist and surrealist scenes that investigate individual and collective history, language, symbolism, and memory. She is currently based in New York, where she also teaches at York College, Brooklyn College and Tufts SMFA University.
