Yoonsuk Choi is a Seoul based artist. His practice is mainly dealing with his immediate surroundings; habitual gestures and the notion of universal Cartesian time and also he is interested in the tension between the personal life of an artist and artist's works. He is currently developing his art practice via approaching to various mediums such as performance, audio-visual materials and curatorial practice.
