SMALL NATURAL BRONZE WITH CLEAR MIRROR GLASS

The Momentum Collection by Soo Joo is an essential and innovative study in sculptural clarity and formal restraint. First introduced in 2018 and evolving into its current bronze-cast iterations in 2021, the series has come to define Joo’s aesthetic identity—anchored in biophilic design and shaped through a deep engagement with traditional Korean aesthetics. These works resist contemporary trends of symmetrical and geometric spectacle in favor of a quiet, deliberate material presence, revealing the depth and conviction behind their seemingly simple contours

The forms of each mirror avoid decorative excess, yet are unmistakably gestural—drawing directly from the tradition of East Asian ink calligraphy. In this tradition, a single brushstroke is not merely a mark but a complete expression of energy, movement, and intention, while the spaces between become as meaningful as the lines themselves. Joo brings this sensibility to her sculptural process, allowing voids, intersections, and edges to operate as active elements within the work—gestures of rhythm and pause, echoing the structure of a poem or the balance of a scroll

Handcrafted in South Korea and in limited edition, the mirrors in the Momentum series reflect Joo’s enduring exploration of how sculptural form can express the essence of nature without resorting to representation. The series redefines the mirror as a contemplative object—one that merges philosophical inquiry with the highest standards of craft

Soo Joo


Born Seoul, South Korea, 1994


Korean-American artist, Soo Joo, creates biophilic works influenced by traditional Korean art and design, which values forms that harmoniously coexist with nature. Inspired by her childhood in the suburbs of New England, her deep connection to East-Asian ink calligraphy, and her interdisciplinary study of evolutionary biology, Joo is driven by our innate human need to feel connected to the natural world. At the core of her work is an investigation into how non-living, abstract forms can still carry the essence of nature, and an exploration into the physical and physiological benefits of bringing biophilic design into our built environment


In creating her novel organic forms, Joo begins by creating watercolor paintings and monoprint artworks from which she develops her expressive and gestural furniture works. Using natural materials with a long history with mankind such as wood, ceramics and bronze, she uses traditional woodworking techniques to painstakingly bent-laminate, stack-laminate and hand-sculpt each of her pieces, carving over several days to ensure that the curves flow from every angle. Through this process, she creates works of extraordinary elegance, harmony, and timelessness that celebrates Korean biophilic aesthetics


Currently based in Seoul, South Korea, Soo is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and classically trained in fine art at Sunhwa Arts School. She worked with international sculptor Lee Jae Hyo for a year in Italy and Korea, and was an Artist Resident at Anderson Ranch Art Center and Penland School of Craft in the United States
