Traditional culture is relevant to both the present and the future. This book provides an insight into the development of fashion, design and culture during the reign of the Choson Dynasty (1392-1910) in Korea. The traditional Korean wrapping cloths stand as a particular testimony to the creative talents of unknown Korean women. Each design is unique and of its time, yet many of the wrapping cloths also bring to mind images of modern abstract art. It is through their design that these objects can communicate with people from other cultures across time.
Features costumes and wrapping cloths of vibrant colour and great beauty dating from the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. From ancient times Korean people have believed that by wrapping an object, good fortune or pok can be contained within the wrapping cloth. The publication includes essays by authors from Korea, the USA and Australia which introduce the history and traditions of Korean dress and wrapping cloths and explore the social and cultural environment in which wrapping cloths were made and used.
