pien studios at shop amomento
seoul, october 2023
For three days in October 2023, Pien Studios took up residence at Shop Amomento's main store in Seoul. For this visit we developed a series of hand-knitted tapestries, each one carrying letters which together spelled: Shop Amomento, made by hand, stitch by stitch, as a kind of quiet dedication to the space and the people behind it.
The tapestries grew from a practice Pien returns to often, small woven textiles made to slow down, to observe the season, to find what comes next.Seoul had already become a city close to the Pien Studios world, a place where the work had found its people, something that only deepened through years of collaborating with Shop Amomento. Those three days became a chance to finally meet that community in person.
