WORKSHOP #1: HOJAKDO (PAINTING OF TIGERS AND MAGPIES)
Level: Beginner

Hojakdo encapsulates the Korean spirit of optimism, unconventional layouts, and combined wit and humor. It incorporates wishes of protection and well-being in the household throughout the year. The humorous and whimsical pair of tiger and magpie are distinctive motifs in Korean folk painting, and they are often specially decorated in the house or on doors on New Year’s Day in order to keep evils and bad fortune away. This is because tigers possess the traits of strength to ward off bad spirits, while magpies are messengers of good news.
