Japandi: shared aesthetics and influences
From October 4, 2021 to October 31, 2021
The textile artist Jin-Sook So moves comfortably in the international art world. In contrast to many Swedish colleagues, she has exhibited and been awarded prizes in Sweden and abroad. She grew up in Seoul, Korea where she received a master's degree in textile art, after which she continued her studies in Japan. Since 1978, she has lived in Sweden, coming there to be a special student for two years in the Department of Textiles at Konstfack, the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm. When her studies were over, however, Jin-Sook realized she had not had much chance to see Sweden since she had been working so intensively. Twenty -seven years have passed since then and still she lives in Sweden.
