The Korea Association Art and Design-Era UNTACT International symposium was held at Kookmin University, College of Design, December 5th, 2020. I
was honored to be invited to present an online lecture, "Mixed Influence-East and West:Diversity of Post-Modern in Ceramics Higher Education Today.
My work "Mother and Child" was also presented at the Administration Hall, December 4-11, 2020.
Abstract-Mixed influences, concepts and impacts, have been reaching Eastern and Western borders with the broadest and most positive definition of visual art in ceramics. It overturns, modifies and questions our way of seeing and comprehending the contexts of the visible and invisible that symbolize contemporary and post-modern artistic language, as well as exposes the symbolic, philosophical vision and aesthetic force. Mixed influences-East and
West movements in higher education today extend and reach beyond the boundaries of artistic expression. Twenty First Century thinking in ceramics higher education and learning can broadly exist and be cultivated through initiative, critical thinking and efforts that experience and challenge the intellectual process.
