Woojin Choi Exhibition
Kips Gallery
This event has ended.
Woojin Choi’s art seems at first, straightforward and to the point. Her subject, the human figure usually occupies the complete visual field of her canvas. Modeled in sober tonal hues, the nude bodies are Like “ensconced” in a often darker but equally evanescent background. The sexual overtone is oddly more pronounced by the neutral rendering of her genderless figures. A fact echoed by the very coolness of the execution and the choice of colors who sometime verge on almost muddiness. To some degree, it feels like Woojin Choi has looked long and hard at Balthus work. She came away with her uniquely own vision of the human figure which comes through In this very strangely beautiful paintings.
