Coming from South Korea,Choi Xooang has been
sculptig for almost 14 years now. Introduced to sculpture in an art
school, he was immediately struck by the medium and the possibility of
creating an actual and tangible object. Both fascinating and disturbing,
Xooang’s figures show his concerns about human condition in the
society. Although the intricate details make them as hyperrealistic as the works of Ron Mueck, Xooang’s sculptures are often surreal
at the same time, having their bodies disorted or merged with other
species. Open for numerous interpretations, they leave the viewer with
unsettling feelings. But as the Korean artist said in a recent interview
with Yatzer, “If one feels uncomfortable physically or mentally when
viewing my work, I would say it worked.”( h/t:ignant) at Galerie Albert Benamou
