Do Ho Suh Walk the House exhibition, Tate Modern, July 2025

I spent the Monday with my colleague Eli. She suggested we go to an exhibition at Tate Modern by Do Ho Suh. He was born in Korea and lived in both New York and London. He uses embroidery, paint and builds amazing things out of brightly coloured nylon.
