About The Programme
STPI – Creative Workshop & Gallery returns to Frieze London with a solo presentation by acclaimed South Korean artist Do Ho Suh, coinciding with his ongoing exhibition Walk The House at Tate Modern, London.
Audiences in London can look forward to encountering new works by Suh, as well as the monumental Main Entrance, 348 West 22nd Street, New York, NY 10011, USA (2016), which stands at almost 4 metres tall.
The works presented were created in collaboration with STPI, where the artist translated his ideas of home, memory and identity into fresh, two-dimensional expressions. Dating back to 2009, Suh’s longstanding relationship with STPI is marked by trust and creative exploration. His very first residency saw the creation of Suh’s thread drawings, where thread is embedded into handmade paper through a specialised technique developed at STPI—a selection of which is on view at our booth.
In recent years, Suh has presented major solo exhibitions at National Galleries of Scotland (2022), Los Angeles County Museum of Art (2019) and The Brooklyn Museum (2018), attesting to his widespread recognition as an established artist at the forefront of global contemporary art.

About the artist
Do Ho Suh
Residencies in 2009, 2013, 2017, 2019, 2023, 2024, 2025
Do Ho Suh (b. 1962, Seoul, South Korea, based in London, United Kingdom) works with drawing, sculpture and film to explore how space is mediated, inhabited and remembered. He confronts its fluid and psychological character across various categories—domestic and public, physical and immaterial, mobile and fixed—to examine ideas of selfhood, belonging and home.
Suh’s works are often autobiographical, such as renowned life-size sculptures of his former residences, constructed with translucent fabric and suspended for viewers to meander through. In a more intimate scale, Suh meticulously recreates household items like switches, plugs and door handles in the form of pastel rubbings on paper. These works point to Suh’s preoccupation with how bodies relate to and interact with the built environment, suggesting that our surroundings shape us just as much as we shape them.
Suh obtained a BFA in painting from Rhode Island School of Design, New York in 1994, and his MFA in Sculpture from Yale University in 1997. His work is in several major collections including 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa; Guggenheim Abu Dhabi; The Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Mori Art Museum, Tokyo; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art,; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; Tate, London; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.

Suh represented Korea at Plateau of Humankind (2001), 49th Venice Biennale, Venice.
Suh has had a long relationship with STPI, resulting in multiple residencies in 2009, 2013, 2017, 2019, 2023 and 2024. His 2013 residency culminated in the exhibition New Works (2015).
