IN YEONGHYE

I was born in Yesan, Korea in 1991. I have a B.A in Industrial Fine Arts from Chungnam National University and completed a Masters Coursework in Crafts, Department of Creative Design & Material Studies at the graduate school. My creative fiber work is inspired by various emotions that I have experienced in social life after graduation. I participated in creative activities starting at the Craft Trend Fair in 2014, and I took part in the Marunuma Art Park International Artist Residency in Japan in 2018. Subsequently, I have exhibited work in solo and group shows at various galleries in Daejeon and Seoul. Currently, I am part of the Korean Craft Museum Artist Residency Program in Cheongju, Korea. I have been awarded numerous awards at the Iksan Korean Crafts Competition from 2013 to 2021.
