Pieces for a Piece brings together six artists whose work is inspired by bojagi and jogakbo, the traditional Korean patchwork cloth made by stitching together small remnants of fabric. Historically used as wrapping cloths, jogakbo transformed discarded fragments into objects of quiet beauty—balancing practicality with a refined sense of composition and care.​​
Working across different cultural backgrounds and artistic practices, the artists reinterpret the language of patchwork in distinct ways—through memory, migration, landscape, ecology, consumer culture, and the experience of home. Their works reveal how fragments, when patiently assembled, can hold traces of time, labor, and lived experience.​​​
As fragments gather into a piece, these works invite us to consider how making—slowly, patiently, by hand—continues to shape the ways we live.​

The Pacific Northwest Quilt & Fiber Arts Museum is located on the land of the Coast Salish peoples, specifically the Swinomish Indian Tribal Community. Many Indigenous peoples thrive here — alive and strong.​
With gratitude, we honor their stewardship of these lands since time immemorial to the present day.
This land acknowledgement does not take the place of authentic relationships with indigenous communities.
We also aim to highlight the major artistic contributions made by indigenous Pacific Northwest artists to the history of weaving and textile arts through exhibits and public programs.
