If the muted blue-green patina of Hun Chung Lee’s sculptural ceramics looks familiar, it may be because you lounged atop his soft-edged architectural furniture in the VIP section of last week’s Armory Show. Known for his modernization of a traditional technique, Lee’s signature finesse with celadon glaze renders his hand-sculpted furniture and objects pale, graceful, and cloud-like.
