Woo-Bock Lee makes collages and images of 200 years old Korean vintage school books with leaves from mulberry trees. The material is essential, and she revisit South Korea annually for inspiration and to find the Korean paper hanji.

She transforms these sheets with both its written and unwritten history by adding new stories. By giving each ancient fiber a brand new identity, she becomes sort of a link between the cultures of East and West and between Then and Now.

Woo-Bock has lived and worked in Stockholm, Sweden for over 35 years and has had
a number of
group and separate exhibitions both nationally and internationally.
