Mindful Meaning
About the Exhibition
The exhibition title is a metaphor for the creation of a world of its own. Designing artistically means discovering something in nature or in the everyday environment that you usually pay little attention to and then give it a new meaning. The young artists at Kookmin University do nothing else. The procedure is similar to that of a miner when looking for precious ores and minerals. The finds became objects, symbols and finally again part of our world or things.
Students from different parts of Korea work in the studio of Kookmin University. In the Department of Metal and Jewelry, they create a – better – their very own world from materials and shapes. They overcome conventional boundaries as they pick up global trends, always underlining their common craft base. They are intelligent and sensitive “miners”. Their studio resembles a mine with veins, into which they descend with the greatest care and with unexpected, surprising discoveries.
