Korea Fiber Art 2023 Louisville is a continuing exhibition of the Korea Fiber Art Biennale, held in Suwon, Korea in the fall of 2022. The goal of the exhibition is to break down the boundaries between fine art and craft and to showcase the diverse expressions in fiber art. This will be a festive event that encompasses traditional and contemporary fiber arts. Those participating include craftsmen, emerging artists, and established artists who have driven modern fiber art in Korea.
Korea Fiber Art International consolidates leading artists in Korean fiber arts to organize symposiums and workshops in correlation to exhibitions. The objective of KFAF is to shed light on Korea's creative endeavors using a wide range of fiber-based materials. The scope is broad from artistic narrative expressions to practical approaches that encompass function.
