About Yooree Choi
Yooree Choi is UK and South Korea-based artist and designer who draws from personal experiences and emotions to create sincere and comforting work. With a background in textile and graphic design, she explores the gentle power of materials through fabric, beads, and layered textures. Her practice reflects a deep desire to share warmth and quiet strength with others.
She combines creative intuition with diverse techniques to build her own visual language. Through her jewellery brand GLASSYMADE and her artistic projects, she crafts pieces that offer a sense of calm and emotional connection. Each work is an invitation to pause, feel, and be gently moved.

작가 최유리는 한국과 영국을 기반으로 활동하는 아티스트이자 디자이너이다. 개인적 경험과 감성을 바탕으로 진솔하면서도 위로가 되는 작업을 꾸준히 펼쳐왔다. 홍익대학교에서 섬유미술&패션디자인을, NottinghamTrent University에서 Textiles MA를 공부하며 천과 비즈, 그리고 겹겹이 쌓인 질감과 같은 재료가 지닌 섬세하고도 부드러운 힘을 탐구한다. 그녀의 작업에는 따뜻함과 조용한 강인함을 전하고자 하는 깊은 의지가 깃들어 있다.
직관적인 창의성과 다채로운 기법을 조화롭게 융합해 자신만의 독창적인 시각 언어를 만들어가며, 주얼리 브랜드 ‘GLASSYMADE’와 예술 작업을 통해 고요한 정서와 감정적 연결을 전달하는 작품들을 선보인다. 각각의 작업은 바쁜 일상 속에서 잠시 멈춰 감각을 깨우고, 마음이 천천히 움직이는 순간을 선사한다.
이 섬세한 감각과 깊은 울림이 깃든 세계에 함께 머물며, 새로운 이야기를 발견하기를 바란다.
