Lovely. Thanks. I spent three years in Mali, West Africa, studying textiles and associated stories and myths and technologies (while earning a PhD in art history). Love this stuff!
Paul Klee!!! One of my favorites as well. I recently saw the bojagi exhibit at the Asian Art Museum in SF and was so enchanted by it. Thank you so much for this video!
As a mother it is very touching, to hear from the tradtion that a mother give her taughter a very special gift made from heart with love! Greatings from Germany!
I've never really been exposed to non-western art all that much, but this video provided a really cool piece of art history and sociocultural understanding. Videos like this ought to be promoted more via UA-cam's algorithm. Keep it up!!
So glad this popped up on my recommend feed. Lovely video. I have seen gifts being wrapped in clothes before in k-media, but never knew the history behind it. Thanks for sharing!
This was such an interesting and inspiring video! I am a fiber/textile artist, I am currently in South Korea to learn the language. My mother is a korean adoptee so I do not know so much about the history from my roots, but this was very inspiring as I am doing some research now about it. Thank you!
shannon i keep on coming back to this vid cuz i love it sooo much. definitely makes me want to up my gift-giving game by a thousand percent haha it's also so nice seeing a video about this korean craft-turned-fine-art tradition getting so much attention like oh my god!!! the congregation is here🗣
Beautiful video! I'm familiar with the Japanese tradition of furoshiki (as well as the boro and sashiko traditions and how they're being changed and appropriated in today's culture) but delighted to learn about the art of pojagi and to hear your thoughtful and well-informed perspective on it. I'm also a huge gift-giver of the same mindset you are, and I admit I'm terrible at wrapping things (my brain shuts off once I finish making the gift, honestly) but I love the idea of using scraps to hand-make wrapping cloths that become a piece of art in themselves. I'd like to give it a try!
So happy I came across this video! I found it very inspiring, and I look forward to watching more of your videos on art history. I'm especially interested in the ways women's art have been minimized and lessened throughout history, which I think is why I'm so drawn to the merging of craft with fine arts.
I just found your channel and I am so so happy I did! I just added Braiding Sweetgrass to my book wishlist. I’ve been super interested in indigenous culture, their concepts of gifts being part of it. I love to learn about the history of different textiles and other art forms and features and can’t wait to watch more videos to learn more! Thank you for learning this info for us and presenting it in such an engaging way. I also really relate to you about growing up in a predominately white area and heavily rejecting my Vietnamese heritage (I’m half) and really learning to embrace it in my adulthood after college. Thank goodness we grew out of it, having a different culture to share with others is the best!
oh my gosh I love this! My MFA final was a rug installation I made and my connections to textiles are similar to yours, my mom being an at-home seamstress and making/fixing my clothes as well ♥️ I loved the journey of writing about them and the conversation and weight around bringing textile art into the art sphere from the “craft only” sphere (women not being valued as artists). I came across bojagi recently when researching hand-quilting and your video is so informative and inspiring! Thank you 💙
Ive started sewing and embroidering this week and this video incentivizes my new interest in textile so much more. Thank you for the history and cultural video, looooved your opinions and analysis as well. Cheers from Argentina!
Hi Shannon, I'm so happy to have stumbled across your channel! This was such an interesting, informative and intelligent lecture. I thoroughly enjoyed it and will be checking out your other videos 😊
Very interesting - I learned something. I like how you weave all the different strands of art, craft, history, culture, personal experience together. Pun totally intended.
Highly appreciable and well curated content! It's really inspiring how such modest pieces of the past are now finally recognized and appreciated for their art form and effort.
This is incredible! Im a painter researching textiles in painting and came across this vid..... and also figuring out ways to package my paintings ! Loved it :-)
You had me at ‘Faith Ringold’! I’ve always been interested in textiles and I met Faith at a quilt show/book signing many years ago. I’m happy to learn more about Bijagi. I’ve seen it used as curtains and didn’t know it was for wrapping. Keep doing what you are doing! I look forward to learning more from you.
Shannon I thoroughly enjoyed this lecture. As a fellow gyopo I love learning more about my ethnic roots and this was amazing. p.s. I think you need to vlog. need to. would love to see the content Xx
I found this really interesting as someone who studied East Asian Art HIstory and specialized in Korean Art. Folk art and specially under the perspective of women's craft is really important. Thank you for sharing✨
I love this video so so so much. I am Wasian Korean, and feel very disconnected from my grandmothers heritage. I am eager to learn more! Thank you for sharing this beautiful art!
Great video! Before watching I definitely thought this was going to be just a Korean version of furoshiki, but the context and stories were really great and showed me otherwise.
I love love love in-depth videos on specific topics such as this one. Thank you so much! ALSO, i just saw that your tea blog and i am in love because i am a tea freak myself :O
Hi Shannon, just found out about your channel! As someone who also grew up disconnected from their korean heritage, this video was very touching and informative. Will definitely be tuning in for more content from you, and now I want to learn more about bojagi and maybe even start the practice! ❤
Thank you, Ms. Kim. I enjoyed watching this video. I am new to learning about bojagi. I appreciate your telling the history behind such beautiful tradition. Thank you!
Thank you for your video. I have been trying to learn as much as i can about bojagi. I am a quilter, and i love learning about all forms of textile arts in all cultures. It is fascinating to me how simular yet unique they are across cultures. I would like to make a bojagi for my friend, but I dont know what the gift should be.
Just want to say thank you for making this so that this information can live on and be passed on.! So beautiful ~ Also random note, I love your outfit and entire video vibe. A soft and serene way to learn
Love your content, keep it up! Also, please get a mic set-up thats still. Your voice is quite snake-like sSSSs and unstable vulume from moving hands so much. Excited to see you develop as a creator!
Hi, I’m really interested in seeing more of Chunghie Lee, do you have links for her art? Cause I was really interested in the No Name Woman (2001), but I can’t seem to find it? It would be amazing if you could share that! 😊
I would not say that it is particularly feminine nowadays maybe just as with cooking, but anyways, what encourages me to get better at knitting is to make unique pieces for myself, color , type of yarn etc, it all make it a great experience for my own fashion options, who knows...? maybe even for cool gifts
Lovely. Thanks. I spent three years in Mali, West Africa, studying textiles and associated stories and myths and technologies (while earning a PhD in art history). Love this stuff!
Please say more! Where did you study, how did you get interested into learning about textiles?
That sounds so interesting!
Dream life! So interesting
