Choi Young deeply explores the imaging of human eyes and cognitive science, and constantly seeks a unique visual language. After the retinal image is transmitted to the brain through the optic nerve, the image of things judged subjectively is formed. However, whether it is possible to distort the prototype of things subjectively. The artist tries to find out the truth. He puts the objective visual image of light on the canvas, and the subjective and objective, the real and the unreal are established side by side.
Choi Young’s paintings draw materials from mass media information, and weaken the visual “tension” of the original images by means of overlaying and erasing, trying to dissolve these intentionally created images that are manipulated by capitalist media and guided by mass consumption. The works in the exhibition “PUSH OUT” are the artist’s reconstruction of geometric figures with various textures and colors on the images of Greenland Zombie ice (Greenland Zombie ice), majestic architectural space, famous artworks, etc., endowing the painting with another a possibility.
Since Choi Yong entered the art field in 2009, he has held 14 solo exhibitions and held exhibitions in South Korea, Japan, China, Malaysia, Russia, France, and the United States.
