Hanji (Korean handmade paper) has a long history, unique formation process, and countless applications throughout Korean culture. Recent Fulbright scholar Steph Rue will give a brief introductory presentation about her experience studying hanji in Korea and will offer a limited quantity of Korean handmade papers, fabrics, and books for sale. This is a unique opportunity to experience high quality handmade papers that are normally unavailable outside of Korea.
Steph Rue is an artist and papermaker with an MFA in book arts from the University of Iowa Center for the Book. She recently completed a one-year Fulbright research grant to study traditional korean book arts and papermaking. For more information on her research, visit stephruejournal.wordpress.com.
