New Exhibition - Korean Stories: Rooted in Hanji", Eunju Park and ILang Song

Gallery@501 is pleased to present Korean Stories: Rooted in Hanji, a new exhibition by Edmonton artists Eunju Park and ILang Song. The exhibit opens at Gallery@501 on September 7, 2025, and shows until October 22, 2025. 

Korean Stories: Rooted in Hanji is an inspirational exhibit that celebrates Korean culture and language through traditional and contemporary stories and techniques. 

 Eunju Park works with Hanji, a traditional Korean paper, tearing and crafting it into expressive forms of Hangul, the Korean characters. Park showcases the beauty of Korean culture while uplifting viewers with messages of hope, joy and self-affirmation. 

ILang Song creates Minhwa, Korean folk paintings on Hanji, traditionally created to express everyday life through symbolic imagery. The layered process of creating Minhwa is an act of decolonization, a celebration of freedom and inclusion, and a way to share messages of blessings and encouragement.

 Visitors will have the chance to create a Minhwa design as they learn about the stories, colors and symbols used in this art form. Visitors will also get to learn about Hangul and see Korean translations in the exhibit. 

The public is invited to join the exhibiting artists for an artist talk at a special reception on Thursday, September 18 at 6:30 p.m. at Gallery@501. This event and admission to the gallery are free.
