Even though CICB has brought about an innovation and change in craft world. Concerns have been expressed. One of them was the surplus of artistry.

There was a request we need to meditate on the lesson craft have two pillars: usefulness(necessity) and artistry(beauty). So we CICB will try to re-read the usefulness as an essence of craft based on the truth, ‘craft in a daily lift here and now’. That is why CICB suggests as its theme. This theme includes an aesthetic usefulness beyond the implemental usefulness.

Kindly expected deep and diverse craft-interpretations on the theme will be shown through this “The 7th CHEONGJU International Craft Competition”.

Genre: All craft artwork projects demonstrating a creative and original vision Qulifications for Entry: All nationalities and genders are welcomed to apply. We accept both individual and group projects of 3 artists or fewer.
