Wonderful Artist Talk today with Artist-in-Residence Sookkyung Park at the Morgan Conservatory.

Born in South Korea and based in Maryland, Sookkyung Park works primarily with paper and has been exploring the new-to-her medium of paper pulp while at the Morgan. Through meticulous folded and constructed paper forms, Park translates processes of accumulation, repetition, and care into sculptural installations that reflect resilience, migration, and the layered narratives of cultural identity. ✨
