AN exhibition of natural and naturally dyed fabrics, fashions and furnishings is underway at the Shanghai Korean Cultural Center and runs through Sunday.
The solo exhibition by Dr Joan Sunghee Kim includes garments, accessories, bedding and household decor. All are made of cotton and flax and colored by dye extracted from plants, animals and minerals.

On Thursday at 3pm, Kim will make a presentation for primary school students and the public.
Date: Through July 15, (9am-6pm)
