The brilliance of Wang-taek Oh’s work lies in his meticulous observation of flowers and plants, which he transforms into exceptional mother-of-pearl designs through his signature technique. His najeon patterns, born of both deep tradition and refined creativity, are not only artistically compelling but also adaptable—manifesting as furniture, wall pieces, and contemplative objets d’art. Each work requires an extraordinary amount of time and precision, resulting in a body of work so rare that only a fortunate few can claim the privilege of collecting these treasures.

With the heartfelt wish that people might one day “stand in line to see my works while I’m still alive,” Oh’s practice is driven by both artistic vision and a quiet yearning for recognition. The pieces on view are not merely decorative—they are, in every sense, treasures. In this exhibition, the artist presents works that embody that very dream: to share something truly rare, enduring, and radiant with the world.
