Seungjoo Mun
Seungjoo Mun is a Korean-born, UK-based jewellery artist working at the intersection of sculptural form and wearable object. A persistent curiosity about hidden structures drives her practice: the internal logic of how things are made, broken, and transformed, and what these processes expose about the nature of objects themselves.
A graduate of Birmingham City University's School of Jewellery and current Artist in Residence (2025–2026), her work has been recognised internationally, including as a Finalist in the Progold 3D DfAM Contest 2026. Through material experimentation, Mun redefines jewellery as a structural inquiry made wearable.
Seungjoo Mun is a jewellery artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice approaches jewellery as a form of intimate sculpture, creating objects that can be worn or kept close in everyday life. Rather than pursuing surface beauty alone, she prioritises structural thinking and narrative intention within each piece. Through processes of deconstruction and material exploration, she investigates how form can carry layered meaning beyond ornament. By translating sculptural thinking into wearable scale, Mun proposes jewellery as a condensed site of inquiry, where structure, memory, and presence coexist within objects made to be lived with.
