[It's LIQUID News] Daniel Jo | Korean Ceramic Designer

Daniel Jo | Korean Ceramic Designer

Daniel Jo is a comtemporary Korean ceramic brand and the designer's name. Based on 10 years of studying Korean traditional art and craft, Daniel's work has an unique structural feature that capture beauty of Korean nature.
 
He creates works with his own interpretation of the international design trend and the traditional Korean craft. Daniel Jo runs a design studio and a small factory. He is deeply engaged to every phase of the making to maintain high quality ceramic works. Founded in 2008, Daniel's studio is located in Seoul, Korea. "The 10 years of studies in Korean traditional ceramic and ceramic sculptures have influenced my current work a lot. As a Korean designer, I have been working hard and spending some time to overcome the differences of culture and language barriers, with a Korean identity in mind", says Daniel.
 
Although he produces every single piece with his bare hands, he can't see himself as a product designer. The only thing about he is totally sure is that there is a leitmotif in all his works: the inspiration, which comes from his daily life, from the music he listens to and from talks with friends.

.art news
 
March 28, 2013
 
CALL FOR CURATORS - Submit your proposals!

International ArtExpo invites all curators to submit curatorial proposals for the 2013 International festivals programme.
 
Proposals are open to Photography, Video Art, Computer Graphics, Painting, Architecture, Installation, Sculpture and Performing Art.
 
The main theme of International ArtExpo Festivals is the Hybridization and mixing of Identities and borders. Nowadays, urban environments, people, rules and limits are no more distinct realities, but they constantly modify and get mixed together, generating new connections and hybrid results. Ethic, social, sexual and religious borders get confused and we feel free to overcome and change all the limits, creating and showing a new type of identity: a crossbreed of characters inserts into a metropolis in which you can find everything you need and become everything you desire.
 
Interested curators should send by email to lucacurci@lucacurci.com the following:
- an exhibition proposal of up to 1000 words
- a list of at least five potential artists along with CVs
- at least one image per artist, or one video work (send only the link) per artist for video-based work
- detailed image list
- curator's CV
 
International ArtExpo is a not for profit organization dedicated to contemporary art and video art that provides a significant forum for cultural dialogue between all artists from different cultures and countries. Its object is to use new technologies to globalize the language of art, to connect the conceptual points of contact of artists working in every part of the world, all united in the thick plot of the world net. From painting to sculpture, from photography to digital art, all the way to video art the work is all manifestation of one will: to communicate through art, a language that transcends the boundaries of language and all political and geographical barriers and unites all religions and all peoples. Since its beginning, the group has organized more than 60 events all around the world. Most of the last events have been realized in museums (CCCB - Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona in Spain, NCCA - National Center for Contemporary Arts in Moscow, etc.), galleries and private foundations. More than 800 artists are part of the Group.

[It's LIQUID News] Folded Light Art + Design | Cotton Paper Lights

 
.design news
 
March 26, 2013
 
Folded Light Art + Design | Cotton Paper Lights
 
With a mathematically complex design and a very high level of craftsmanship, Jiangmei Wu's unique, sensuous lights illuminate a room through amazingly complex and original forms that reinvent the role of lighting in interior design. Each lights is made of pieces of digitally-cut and hand-folded high quality paper, illuminated by a custom LED light, providing a soft ambience that highlights the intricacy and the mathematical complexity of the piece. By using original origami folding compositions developed by Wu, each light shade can be unfolded into flat pieces of paper. Once folded, the paper structures are self-supportive and don't require additional materials to hold them up. Aesthetic and practical, art and science, Wu's works are unique in their feeling, thought, and craftsmanship.
 
Currently on the faculty in the Interior Design department at Indiana University, Wu is trained in and has practiced design across a wide range of disciplines: interior design, graphic design, interaction design, architecture and urban design. Through the use of different scales, media, and technologies, Wu is interested in understanding how elements of design, material applications, as well as construction techniques, influence one another and together transcend boundaries between the different disciplines. She believes that the interaction between different experiences enriches the mind and encourages one to search for a plurality of meanings in design.

Recently Wu has been investigating the tectonic relationship between form/space, surface texture, and poetic expression of construction through origami and computer-aided design, as well as sustainable design through the use of recycled materials and energy efficient technologies. "The folded Light Art project was initiated because of my passion for paper folding. First I experimented with paper with smaller sizes and simple patterns. Paper pieces were then grafted together to create more complex design". The result is a series of paper folded lighting art and fixtures that are made from recycled cotton paper and LED lights.
