Mourning Becomes Electra

IAP Artist-in-Residence Program 2019

Mourning Becomes Electra | 상복이 어울리는 엘렉트라

This exhibition marked the beginning of a collaboration with artist Mirae kh RHEE. The design carefully considered motifs that appeared in the artist’s body of work being exhibited and how to subtly weave that into the design. The background juxtaposes the geometric pattern of bamboo wives with sambe 삼베, a traditional hemp fiber used for funerary garments in Korea.
