Jungin Lee
'A Soft Landscape'

A reflection on consumption and waste prompted an austere approach towards this chair, whose structure was created by generating zero waste. Using 100 sheets of Hanji, its shape is guided by intuition and organicism, then completed as a cloud-like form. Pointing towards a version of efficiency that isn’t formulaic, the artist replaces sustainability ideas with co-existence paradigms.

Honing her woodworking skills while studying Design Products, Jungin Lee works across furniture design and sculpture. Her meticulous approach to handcrafting fabrics and the traditional Korean paper Hanji have been celebrated as part of group exhibitions in Italy and France, as well as art fairs across Europe and Asia.
