2025 The Biennale is the 14th event, and this year’s theme is “Building the World.”

“Build” clothes, build food, build houses. It means the creative act of the whole state of consciousness. Based on the state of consciousness and the craft of relating to the life of mankind, “World-Building Re-Crafting Tomorrow” is a community that encompasses art-design-architecture, connects human-nature-things, and expresses the unconsciousness and culture of the group. Diagnose the new identity and possibilities of the troubled craft.

In addition, in the era of digital technology, which seeks stimulation and entertainment, we want to find the essential value of crafts that enhance the body's recovery and material intelligence.

On September 4th, Cheongju, the world's craft city, will be a historic site to connect the world with crafts and the values of crafts.

This year’s program includes the traditional Cheongju International Craft Competition, leading into an exhibition of works from the successful entrants and winners.
