Photo: tate.org.ukEnter the captivating world of contemporary artist Do Ho Suh, in a major exhibition of his large-scale installations, sculptures, videos and drawings at Tate Modern.
His first major solo show in London for a generation is called 'Walk the House' and refers to the Korean hanok – a house that could be taken down, transported and then reassembled in a brand-new location.
"The space I'm interested in is not only a physical one," he explained, "but an intangible, metaphorical, and psychological one. For me, 'space' is that which encompasses everything."

Visitors will be able to wander through Suh's immersive artworks and fabric architectures, experiencing the breadth and depth of his invention over the last three decades.
On display will be some of his earliest installations, life-sized replicas of homes in Seoul, New York and London - the three cities that he himself has called home - plus a site-specific work that's on display for the very first time. Titled Perfect Home: London, Horsham, New York, Berlin, Providence, Seoul 2024, this is an outline of his current London home, filled with architectural features like doorknobs, light switches and electrical sockets, that trace the domestic spaces that he has lived in.
