The Hanji Pavilion was shaped by Korea’s traditional sense of proportion and structure, while metaphorically reflecting the subtle hues of hanji treated with traditional Korean oiling. It has been meaningful to direct the Hanji Pavilion, and I am deeply grateful to the Korea Craft and Design Foundation. @roomb26@moonhee.hwang
Andong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, where rivers have converged over centuries among vast mountains to shape fertile plains, is a land textured by nature and time, nurturing a spiritual heritage rooted deep within. Subtle, earthy colors from its legacy-rich soil evoke a quiet dignity unique to this region. Hanji paper from Andong absorbs history and contemplates the present, quietly sustaining the lifeblood and memory of its homeland through textures shaped by the land. Forms like Hap (Korean traditional container) and Ham (Korean traditional box) embody steadfast elegance as they endure the passage of time. These works echo the discipline and resilience of Andong’s traditions, honoring heritage through hardship and change, in a harmony of metaphor and likeness.

올해로 100주년을 맞이하는 이 장엄한 건축물을 기념하는 전시가 열리고 있습니다. 경성역에서 시작하여 서울역을 거쳐 문화역서울에 이르기까지. 이제는 예술적 잠재력으로 가득한 도시의 역사이자 역사驛舍. 이곳의 과거와 미래를 조망하고 싶었습니다. 이곳이야말로 지난 서울의 기억을 담은 저장소이자, 다가올 서울의 상상을 이끄는 발원지일 것이라는 생각을 합니다.
Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do, the wind carries a unique spirit. For centuries, its fertile plains and pristine waters have nurtured the region’s winds, fostering a land of abundance and leisure. This environment has cultivated an exquisite culture of pungryu—the art of elegant enjoyment. It is a spirit heard in lyrical melodies and rhythms, seen in the vistas over hanok eaves, and felt in the billowing of buchae (Korean traditional fan) and the perfect cadence of punggyeong (Korean traditional wind chime). Guided by the hands of master artisans, this spirit of pungryu continues to flow through the Jeonju hanji paper.
