PHOENIX | BUT NEW YORK

cv/statement
b. 1991. new york city, ny.
— lives/works in phoenix, az.
by exploring the intricacies of existence and delving into the imperfections and fluidity of emotions, chung captures the essence of our shared humanity. his multi-dimensional approach intersects traditional techniques with contemporary forms, challenging the conventional notions of painting’s preciousness. his creative process is characterized by spontaneity and organic engagement, often working directly on the ground both indoors and outdoors. this method allows the canvas to absorb fragments of his environment.
infused with a fun touch, he evokes nostalgic sentiments akin to children’s drawings and pop art aesthetics. layering sewn textiles and integrating bold neon elements, chung invites viewers to contemplate the various stages of his artistic journey. his approach not only transforms physical space but also evokes profound emotional responses, unveiling the infinite and ever-changing beauty inherent in life’s complexity. through exploration, he bridges art, design, and architectural realms, revealing an intertwined influence on each other’s evolution and expression.
