Jiwon Choi

Jiwon Choi explores the space between life and death—a void where the present and future converge—capturing the world within this gap. She creates chambers of vacuum where secretive energies intersect, using frames and doors as portals between the realms of life and death. Through various artificial and natural elements collected from everyday life, such as dolls, crafts, and taxidermied insects, Choi brings these worlds together. The objects in her works, including porcelain dolls, are often things that have ended their life yet continue to influence the artist’s present. Thus, these objects serve as a symbolic effort to understand the lives of her contemporaries and the world she inhabits, rather than merely reflecting reality.
