Fragments of Memory II | Fiber Art Series

“Fragments of Memory II” continues Jaclyn Bae’s exploration of time, memory, and transformation through recycled denim. Each piece of fabric once carried someone’s warmth, movement, and story — remnants of a shared human history. By disassembling, bleaching, cutting, and re-stitching, the artist reconstructs fragments into new visual forms that suggest the layered nature of remembrance. The work meditates on how memories fade, overlap, and renew — much like threads interwoven across time.

Over the Hill I · 언덕 λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ I Over the Hill II · 언덕 λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ II Over the Hill III · 언덕 λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ III Over the Hill Series | 언덕 λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ Ⅰ–Ⅲ The “Over the Hill Ⅰ–Ⅲ” series is created with hand-dyed fabrics and mixed media. Climbing a windy hill, only to see everything below swept away by the wind, evokes a quiet sense of emptiness. This body of work contemplates the human journey — the effort, the passage, and the silence at the peak of life. Through layered textures, color, and transparency, the series visualizes both the weight and impermanence of existence. λ°”λžŒ λΆ€λŠ” 언덕을 힘겹게 올라 λ‚΄λ €λ‹€λ³΄λ‹ˆ, λͺ¨λ“  것이 λ°”λžŒκ³Ό ν•¨κ»˜ 사라져버린 λ“―ν•œ ν—ˆλ¬΄ν•¨μ΄ λ°€λ €μ™”λ‹€. μž‘ν’ˆ μ‹œλ¦¬μ¦ˆ 「언덕 λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ Ⅰ–Ⅲ」 λŠ” μ†μœΌλ‘œ μ—Όμƒ‰ν•œ 천과 λ‹€μ–‘ν•œ 재료λ₯Ό ν™œμš©ν•œ λ―ΉμŠ€λ―Έλ””μ–΄ μž‘μ—…μœΌλ‘œ, μΈμƒμ˜ μ—¬μ •κ³Ό λ…Έλ ₯, 그리고 κ·Έ λμ—μ„œ λ§ˆμ£Όν•˜λŠ” κ³ μš”ν•œ κ³΅ν—ˆλ₯Ό ν‘œν˜„ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€. 겹겹이 μŒ“μΈ 천의 질감과 μƒ‰μ˜ 투λͺ…함은 μ‚Άμ˜ λ¬΄κ²Œμ™€ λ§μ—†μŒμ„ μ‹œκ°μ μœΌλ‘œ λ“œλŸ¬λƒ…λ‹ˆλ‹€. © Jaclyn Bae | Mixed Media on Hand-Dyed Fabric #OverTheHill #μ–Έλ•λ„˜μ–΄μ„œ #MixedMediaArt #HandDyedFabric #FiberAr...

Art works-Window Installation

Image
Window Series — Light, Memory, and Connection Exploring the landscapes of the mind and inner light through windows by Jaclyn Bae A window is not only a frame that looks outward, but also a mirror that reflects the self. Through transparent silk, denim, handmade paper, and real branches, each piece becomes a meditation on light, memory, and connection. Hidden emotions and emerging hope overlap like shadow and illumination, revealing the layers of life itself. Each work stands on the threshold between inside and outside — a scene that shifts constantly with light and time, inviting viewers to find their own reflection within the work. Window Installation I — Tree & Growth Rings Created for my deck window using gray transparent silk, this installation combines black nylon cut into a tree silhouette with circular denim forms stitched with colorful threads. The round patterns symbolize tree rings — the lived years, the seasons ...

Harmony Series II–III | Solitude, Wonderland, and Memory Fiber & Mixed-Media Work with Denim by Jaclyn Bae The Harmony Series reflects moments of stillness, transformation, and inner harmony found in the flow of time. Each piece is crafted from repurposed denim — worn jeans and faded garments carefully bleached, stitched, and layered to reveal new life through old fabric.

Through each thread and seam, the work speaks about time, endurance, and quiet grace. “Harmony II” — exploring stillness through layered denim textures “Harmony III” — fragments of memory stitched into unity “Solitude” — silence woven through fading denim and thread “Wonderland” — a stitched journey between past and dream Untitled — exploring rhyth...
