Rituals of the Everyday: The Poetry of Use

A Solo Exhibition by Hong Jun Park Nov 6 - 23, 2025

Placing food on a tray, pouring tea, offering a plate to a guest—these ordinary gestures repeat each day, yet they carry meaning in their quiet persistence. Within repetition lies attention, care, and a way of seeing life with greater depth. In this transformation, the smallest moments of daily life become rituals.

Through his woodworking, Hong Jun Park reflects on this threshold where use turns into practice. His objects are functional tools, but they are also vessels of attitude. The grain of the wood, shaped by hand, conveys a quiet warmth and records the traces of their users over time.

This exhibition invites us to consider how the tools of everyday life extend beyond function, shaping our gestures, and returning ordinary moments as rituals of living—an experience of the everyday becoming something ritual-like and special.
