Chunghie Lee: My Cup OverflowsFuller Craft Museum
June 11, 2009– October 18, 2009
Korean-born fiber artist, Chunghie Lee, was at RISD when I studied there. Even then her work was dream-like and powerful. Here's from the website's description of this installation:
The "installation references the anonymous, ancient women who, during the Choson Dynasty, created these functional works of art. Large panels of draped silk, hemp and linen – embellished with images of Korean woman and other symbols of the past – are simultaneously contemporary in their graphic nature. Lee’s works connect past and present."
She will speak about her work Sunday July 19 at 1PM.
