Held to commemorate the 60th anniversary of bilateral relations between Spain and the Republic of Korea, 'Labores milenarias. Tejidos del Museo de Bordados de Corea' offers a glimpse into the primary artistic expressions of Korean culture through textiles. The exhibition features approximately one hundred pieces from the final period of the Choseon dynasty (1392-1910), showcasing intricate embroidery (chasu) used to embellish various objects and garments, as well as the art of pojagui, or wrapping cloths, which originated from recycled fabric scraps. The displayed works present aesthetic criteria distinct from Western traditions, offering a unique stimulus for visitors. Adding a contemporary dimension, Huh Dong Hwa, founder and director of the Korean Embroidery Museum and a recognized artisan, contributes two pieces that provide a modern perspective on the country's distinctive aesthetic.
