Ceramic Donuts by Jae Yong Kim
For his ongoing series of ceramic donuts, sculptor Jae Yong Kim chooses patterns and images that evoke a sense of pop culture both past and present
“Without my intention, references to Pop Art have been a consistent occurrence throughout the entirety of the donut artworks. Questioning myself regarding the donuts falling in line with a specific genre has brought questions and need for understanding. Each individual donut has invariably read to me as a small painting; color, pattern and physicality have been the ultimate procedure for my personal expression.”
