As I predicted, I’ve been pretty quiet on the blog front since I got back from the south of Korea with one week left of my trip. I have been travelling around in and out of Seoul every single day with at least one appointment per day with artists, curators and gallerists, so it has been non stop, but fascinating and exciting.
I found out the day before yesterday that although I am flying back on the 2nd, my flight actually departs at just past midnight on the 1st, which effectively has cut my trip short by an entire day (as I mistakenly believed!) I now have to check out of my accommodation tomorrow morning, even though tomorrow is one of the furthest days trips I am doing out of Seoul, to Icheon Pottery Village, home of the Gyneoggi International Ceramic Bienniale, one of the biggest ceramic biennials in the world. That is where Jung Eun Han, one of my favourite artists who is participating in Made in Korea, is artist in residence, so I am really looking forward to it! But I must make sure I get back in time to get to the airport!
Updates of all of my meetings with artists and studio visits will be forthcoming. Now I’ve got to finish packing (it’s 11.30pm here).
Night!
