HAND-WOVEN LANDSCAPE
<Frugal, without being shabby: Fancy, without overly extravagant>
As its first exhibition of the year of 2019, the Korean Cultural Center presents you the 'JOGAKBO'. The precious selection of art pieces illustrates the beauty of Korean traditional art crafts. 'JOGAKBO' is an art of creating a new blanket sewn with pieces of fabric. Depending on the application, this blanket can be a wrapping cloth, bedspread, table cover or book cover.
Originally, JOGAKBO was been made from remnants of fabrics rendered unusable by shape and size. However, in modern crafts, using of exquisite fabrics, it can be placed in a higher dimension: that of artistic artisanship. A Crafting requires a profound understanding of the each material, especially its strengths and weaknesses. CHOI Dukjoo, the artist of 'JOGAKBO' is appreciated for her distinguished passion and deep reflection transcending her work. In order to master the temperament of the artisanal material, she began the exploration and studied of many textiles.
