Grand Hyatt Seoul holds exhibition with ceramicist Shin Sang-ho

"A Place We Imagined," an exhibition of renowned ceramicist Shin Sang-ho's work, officially opens Friday at Grand Hyatt Seoul.

The exhibition takes a different approach to display. Instead of being lined up in a separate gallery space, the works are placed among the furniture and objects of the LL level. Visitors come across them while walking through the space, much like spotting something unexpected in an old shop window.

The format reflects Shin's long-running experimentation with new forms, according to the hotel.
