THROUGH THE LIGHT_Contemporary Jogakbo by Wonju Seo
Melding tradition with innovation, Through the Light showcases the contemporary Jogakbo (Korean wrapping cloth) art of Wonju Seo. Rooted in the centuries-old Korean textile tradition, Seo’s translucent compositions transform humble fabric into luminous abstractions. Her works echo the geometry of modernist painting while inviting viewers to experience light as a living element—passing through seams, shifting with space, and casting ephemeral shadows. With a minimalist sensibility and reverence for craftsmanship, Seo reimagines once utilitarian Korean craft of Bojagi as a contemporary language of transparency, balance, and spiritual reflection.
Opening Reception: Friday, September 26th, 5 PM to 7 PM, Skylight Gallery
This exhibition is curated by Jinyoung A. Jin, the director of Asian art and culture at the Charles B. Wang Center.
