Tangible Secrets
Esther Cho | MFA Thesis Exhibition
In Tangible Secrets, Cho investigates collected secrets as palpable material and explores the contemporary application of jiseung, a traditional Korean paper-weaving craft. Cho transforms mulberry paper and personal narratives into complex vessel-like works that reveal or retain written secrets. Tangible Secrets also features a participatory installation within the gallery for viewers to “give” a secret, prompting viewers to decide between maintaining confidentiality or embracing self-expression.
