The Wanju Cultural Foundation's Complex Cultural District Nuje will hold a pop-up exhibition titled "The Story of a Craftsman" at the Nuje Art Hall Exhibition Room 2 until August 24.

In addition to the works of the five participating artists, each of whom runs a workshop or studio with a unique character, the exhibition features well-worn tools they actually use and sketches made during the conceptualization of their pieces, allowing visitors to observe the artists' intentions.

This exhibition was planned with the hope that visitors will take a fresh look at crafts that have been consumed as a matter of course in daily life, and that it will serve as an opportunity to take a step closer to craft culture imbued with the lives of the artists.

In addition to viewing the exhibition, visitors will have the opportunity to purchase and collect the works. More detailed information is available on the Complex Cultural District Nuje website.
