The Gwangju Biennale is an international art exhibition held every two years since its first event in 1995. This year, 79 artists (teams) from 32 countries around the world are participating under the theme "Soft and Tender Like Water," aiming to convey global coexistence and solidarity.

For this Biennale, Hyosung Advanced Materials provided 1,270㎡ (approximately 384 pyeong) of its product, the "Swan Carpet." This durable nylon roll carpet is suitable for various spaces such as hotels, exhibition halls, clubhouses, and offices.
