About this artwork
Daesun Choi observes the influence of language on the real world, and has been tearing newspapers published by mainstream Korean media, soaking them in water, and using them as materials for works since a decade ago. He laments the reality that the media in Korean society has distorted the truth through language and turned into a trumpet that protects the establishment..
He uses newspaper paper as a material and unfolds his narrative on the canvas… in the form of a paper relief. Through concave and convex lines, the text language and photographs filled in the newspaper are fused into 0 and 1, and the text language is deconstructed through horizontal lines, vertical lines, and diagonal lines, creating a new space and time.
The work was unveiled at a solo exhibition at Fuji Gallery in Osaka, Japan, in 2013.
This work consists of four canvases.
« I am a Korean artist who loves solitude, silence, and contemplation. I do not believe in philosophical realism. I believe that the world lasts only in permanent change. »
Daesun Choi is an artist based in South Korea whose paintings have been widely exhibited nationally, as well as in Japan, the United States, and Germany. His most recent abstract and semi-abstract compositions are made using newspapers, hanji, or paper strings. For Choi, the newspaper represents the secular world in which we live. However, he does not believe that this medium gives an accurate interpretation because of the inherent limitations of text language, whose meaning can be easily distorted.
