Hyewon Grigoni Duke Arts Create Instructor

Hyewon Grigoni has engaged in a variety of creative practices since childhood. Her work and writing have appeared in art shows, in print, and on air for public radio. She has taught art and art appreciation at the K-12 level, and her favorite discipline to teach kids and adults is Drawing 101 – aka the Art of Looking. Her next painting exhibition will be at the Durham Arts Council in March 2025. 

Hyewon believes that art, like good writing or good religion, can comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Her work aims to achieve a little of both in equal measure. She hopes DukeCreate participants will enjoy a laid back and supportive environment to get away from their day and make stuff.
