The Korean Cultural Centre Australia (KCC) presents a craft exhibition ‘The Journey of Time’ featuring 81 works by 22 eminent artisans and artists from Korea.


This exhibition explores a good selection of contemporary Korean craft which reflects the notion of time of nature, human and objects.

‘The Journey of Time’ illustrates the distinctive and exceptional hybrid qualities that embrace past and present Korean craft. The materials used include metal, fabric, wood, lacquer, paper, leather and carbon fiber etc., and all the works highlight the self-discipline of the artist in the course of approaching or reverting to the nature and the essence thereof.

Following its successful exhibition in Spain (Museo National De Artes Decorativas) last June, this exhibition will be held in Australia for the first time.

This exhibition is hosted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in Korea and co-organised by the Korea Craft & Design Foundation (KCDF) and the Korean Cultural Centre Australia.
