Weaving (Fall 2019)

Rhode Island School of Design

The Sun, Moon, and Five Peaks(Irworobondo) is a traditional Korean painting that stood behind the king's throne during the Joseon dynasty(1392-1910). Then throne and the painting symbolize the ruler's position at the center of the universe. The striking colors and beauty of symmetry make this painting powerful. I wanted to mimic the energy and texture of the king's throne.
