Sungryul Jun is a designer and artist from South Korea, currently based in Europe. 
His work explores cultural identity through the convergence of traditions and modernity. Drawing from personal experiences of cultural collisions, he develops distinct visual languages that reinterpret the significance of objects and spaces, bridging heritage and global perspectives.

        His practice focuses on creating spatial works and objects that embody the dialogue between cultural phenomena and identity. Recently, he has been experimenting with traditional Korean aesthetics, blending refined forms with contemporary imagery. Through his unique hybrid design language, Jun produces works that transcend boundaries, moving seamlessly between functional everyday objects and artistic sculptures.
