The Korean artist Do Ho Suh has always lived a traveling life, forced to make continuous transfers, and his works reproduce in 1:1 scale the skeletons of the houses where he lived, made entirely of semi-transparent materials and fabrics.
Combining the inner spaces of his soul and his memories with the outside spaces, he attempts to symbolically represent the sensation that he never really belongs to a place because he is already projecting to a new start.
His most famous work is the Home Within Home installation, hosted by the Seoul National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, which replicates the paternal home where he grew up. The work faithfully reproduces the interiors of the house, containing scales and objects of everyday use such as lamps, toilets and refrigerators.
