Crafting Conversations: talk with Woo Jin Joo
11 January 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Join us for a fascinating in-conversation event with London based artist Woo Jin Joo. This event will offer an engaging insight into Woo Jin’s interests and practice as a mixed media artist specialising in soft sculpture and embroidery, influenced by Asian philosophies, traditions and culture, and exploring how we perceive value in our consumerist society.
Working across a range of disciplines including drawing, painting and textile art, Woo Jin’s practice seeks to re-enchant and to reveal a lost poetry in everyday objects that are overlooked, unnoticed, replaceable or disposable. Woo Jin will talk about how she transforms ordinary objects, giving them their own character and voice, that brings them to life and encourages us to reassess their value in our day-to-day lives.
