When Jiman Choi told me that he planned to reproduce a Joseon dynasty (14th-19th centuries) period bowl for a solo exhibition, I was curious about the form his exhibit would take. For Choi, the ...Joseon dynasty represents commitment to an idea and the embodiment of artistic ideals about ritual and beauty. Choi encountered two sublime Joseon bowls at the Gyeonggi Museum in Korea in 2003. He was impressed by several aspects of the bowls: the symbolic names given to the pots (which imply a greater meaning or ritual symbolism) their simplicity and the history connected to them. Simultaneously, they also represent the herculean effort required to realise an ideal into form. These two Joseon bowls had a profound effect on Choi's ideas and direction for his project.
