Youngmin guides students through the art of creating contemporary jogakbo—traditional Korean patchwork bojagi—with a modern twist and a sewing machine. Using a sleek, monochromatic palette and a single-layer finish, students will explore bold, graphic design through clean, rectilinear forms. The intuitive “design-as-you-go” approach sparks creativity and encourages spontaneity, giving students the freedom to experiment, play, and discover their own artistic voice in this timeless yet innovative textile form.
