Though based on photographs from her walks and travels, Sujin Choi’s painted scenes assume the quality of fables, fusing reality, memory, and imagination. Her works for this exhibition shows sunlit interiors where the mundane blurs into the fantastical, arousing a synesthetic response transcending the painted surface.
Since earning significant recognition starting in her mid-twenties, Choi has been included in notable exhibitions such as Humorland & Co. (Daegu Art Museum, Daegu, 2021), and The Adventure of Korean Contemporary Painting: I Will Go All By Myself (National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Cheongju, 2019).
