Learn how to make paper thread using hanji and a drop spindle!
About this Event

We will start with a sheet of hanji (handmade Korean paper) that is folded, cut, then manipulated and handspun into a one-ply thread. This contemporary method, developed by Aimee Lee, is rooted in Korean and Japanese traditions.

All skill levels welcome and all supplies will be provided, including drop spindles, x-acto knives, cutting mats, spray bottles, and hanji sheets provided by Paper Connection. You are welcome to bring your own drop spindle, if you have one you prefer to use. Please bring your patience and openness to failure being part of the learning process!

If you have any questions, please write to [email protected] or call us Monday - Thursday (401)454-1436.


About the instructor:

Justine Chang is a Korean American artist based in Providence, RI. Her recent work explores photographic prints on hanji—blending the tradition of Korean handmade paper with images that evoke themes of erasure, memory, grief and exuberance. She finds meaning in creating spaces for conversation and collective labor in ways that are connected to her heritage. She holds a BFA in Photography from the Rhode Island School of Design.
