3. TP Project(Collaboration Project) – Mixed Media
TP Project (2024) is a collaborative project between Seongeun Lee (MA Textiles)and Bogyeom Kim (MA Design Products), featuring two works titled ‘DE 01 (2024)’ and ‘DE 02 (2024)’. This project emerged from a deep empathy for each other’s aesthetic values and an academic exchange of ideas, driven by curiosity about contrasting materials and techniques. It aims to create a new visual aesthetic experience. While metal provides structural stability and sturdiness, textiles add a sense of flexible vitality to movement and change.
