Sum (숨) is a hands-on textile workshop led by multidisciplinary artist Jun Yang. Participants will create soft sculptures and mini pillow-like forms through simple sewing and stuffing techniques, exploring how fabric, touch, and form can carry memory and emotion. Inspired by experiences of loss and loneliness, as well as a desire to honor family legacies and preserve personal histories, this workshop approaches art-making as a therapeutic act of creating. Participants are invited to explore softness as a form of resilience while crafting tactile objects that hold memories, care, and belonging. The focus is not on producing visually perfect objects, but on the act of making itself—an intimate process of reflection, healing, and connection. Through slow, hands-on creation, the workshop becomes a space for collective care, where creativity transforms into a quiet revolution of healing and shared joy. SUM (숨) (means breathing in Korean) This program is co-sponsored with Ma’s House.
