WHILE RESEARCHING INCENSE FOR HER ART PRACTICE, HYUNGI FOUND A SEVERE LACK OF INFORMATION AVAILABLE, AND INSTRUCTIONAL RESOURCES TO BE ALMOST NONEXISTENT. PIECING TOGETHER WHAT LITTLE SHE COULD FIND, SHE DEVELOPED METHODS AND PRACTICES DERIVED FROM TRADITIONAL WAYS OF MAKING NATURAL, HANDMADE INCENSE. AS FRIENDS TOOK NOTE, SHE WAS FREQUENTLY ASKED FOR LESSONS, AND USED THESE EARLY SESSIONS TO DEVELOP HER WORKSHOP CURRICULUM. SINCE ACQUIRING HER LOS ANGELES STUDIO SPACE, GOYO, IN 2019, SHE HAS HOSTED REGULAR INCENSE MAKING WORKSHOPS, SHARING HER PASSION AND KNOWLEDGE WITH THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO LEARN.

 

OUR WORKSHOPS BEGIN WITH TRADITIONAL KOREAN TEA AND SNACKS. ATTENDEES LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY OF INCENSE, DIFFERENT TYPES AND USES OF INCENSE, AND THE PROCESS OF MAKING NATURAL INCENSE BY HAND. THE WORKSHOP INCLUDES ALL MATERIALS TO MAKE A SINGLE BATCH OF INCENSE (APPROXIMATELY TEN 1 INCH CONES) AND AN INFORMATIONAL ZINE TO TAKE HOME. 

 

ADDITIONALLY, WE OFFER PRIVATE WORKSHOPS FOR SMALL GROUPS, AS WELL AS ONLINE AND IN PERSON CORPORATE WORKSHOPS FOR GROUPS OF 20-100+ INDIVIDUALS

(EXACT PROGRAM MAY VARY BY SIZE).
