Suki Seokyeong Kang, a Korean sculptor known for reimagining traditional Korean artistic forms in contemporary sculpture, died on Sunday at age 48 after a years-long battle with cancer. Her passing was announced by Seoul’s Kukje Gallery and her New York representative, Tina Kim Gallery. Kang’s work drew from centuries-old practices such as Joseon Dynasty painting and 600-year-old musical notation, translating them into highly conceptual, visually seductive sculptures that appeared in biennials worldwide, including Gwangju and Venice, and in museum surveys such as a 2023 show at Seoul’s Leeum Museum of Art. At the time of her death, her largest-ever US exhibition was on view at the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, featuring her "Mountain" series inspired by the traditional Korean style si-seo-hwa.
