Korean-American painter Leeah Joo’s work is inspired by the enigmatic and hidden. In her illusionist paintings, she teases our predisposition to probe and uncover. Intriguing parcels in her Pojagi series are enveloped by a lavish, traditional Korean wrapping cloth and beckon to be unpacked. The richly detailed paintings of lacey drapery in her Parrhasius series present an open-ended narrative, inviting us to question what lies behind the curtain. Joo studied painting and art history at Indiana University in Bloomington and received her MFA in painting from the Yale School of Art, Her paintings have been exhibited widely in the U.S. and South Korea. She is the recipient of notable awards from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, George Sugarman Foundation, Connecticut Commission on Arts and the Puffin Foundation. Currently, Leeah Joo lives and paints in Middlebury, Connecticut and teaches at Southern CT State University and Paier College.
Do kyhuine have a clothing item that is as significant as the maanuls hats?
context: eastern maanul hats are mentioned here
Yes, kyhuines have ridiculous headpieces that can rival if not "win" against eastern maanul hats, while id like to dedicate posts for each region I can still show the biggest one, which I will probably make a whole post about them soon since the art is done.
a headpiece from the salt rock kyhuines/salt desert region, usually worn by males during some very special ceremonies. they're not an everyday hats to wear.
The eastern maanul's hat holding so much significance socially is quite exclusive to them among's maanuls, while hats are a universal piece of clothing to make none of them can rival eastern hats being so heavy and over the top with jewels. While other maanuls like the west who have hats inspired by the east are toned down+ hat makers like the ones in the eats who can work with shells are quite rare outside of east regions.
other regions of kyhuines also got special headware too, but they're not as big as the salt desert people's. like maanuls some will be for religious purposes, others more of a fashion thing to wear, and so on
