No. 2
Description
A norigae, cord, tassel, and coin ornament traditionally worn rather than displayed, mounted and framed as a standing textile work. Removing it from the body changes its register entirely: what was ornament becomes composition.
Technique
Maedeup: cord formed from dyed silk threads, tied into a sequence of named knots along a single continuous strand, with no cutting or joining until the piece is complete.
