The collective Mother Of Pearl was founded in 2013 in Düsseldorf by the artists Liza Dieckwisch, Ae Ran Kim, Jungwoon Kim and Klara Paterok. Since then, they have realised a series of exhibitions, residencies and projects together.
In 2021, the collective conceived and built the artistic-architectural intervention of the same name “Mother Of Pearl” in St. Florian near Linz, Austria. Based on the concept of a Korean pavilion (Jeongja), the collective incorporated the surrounding nature into the design. The Mother Of Pearl pavilion was specially designed for one of the carp ponds at St. Florian Abbey: the pavilion extends out onto the water surface of the pond and merges with the surrounding fauna and flora to form a unity. For its implementation, the artists attached great importance to ecological and regional approaches. For the project they used regional wood, which they treated with fire.
Mother Of Pearl is a place of cultural exchange, an exhibition space, a space for concerts and performances. Curated by the artists themselves, it aims to promote free artistic work and dialogue between different disciplines.
