WRAPPING WITH BLESSINGS Wonju Seo’s Wrapping with Blessings showcases pojagi’s fundamental functions and captures the way in which the traditional, practical, and spiritual Korean values inherent in pojagi can be reborn and adapted in our contemporary age. The patchwork, with its various colors and thorough stitching, can be seen as an expression of the artist’s devotion to the comfort and well-being of the viewer. ——charles b. wang center, stony brook university, ny, 2014
