The inception of the bond between Choi Sori and the world of art unfolded as a mix of inevitability and coincidence. From his early days reveling in music, Choi emerged as a globally acclaimed percussionist and musician, only to confront a bleak reality upon being diagnosed with hearing loss. Fueled by an inability to contain his frustration, he hurled his drumsticks against the wall, confronting the marks they etched in their wake.
Contemplating the emotional residues left behind on the wall, Choi recognized the potential to translate his musical expressions into visual art, embarking on a fresh journey fueled by his unwavering musical passion but now channeled through the medium of art.
This epiphany led him to understand that every object and force in the world carries a unique sound, prompting him to embrace the role of a messenger, transmitting these sounds through his artistic endeavor.
His work serve as proof of residual feelings and reflections on the relationship between art and nature. Choi's sculptures, marked by bruises, scars, and oxidation, capture the coincidental effects of sound, forging a strong connection with viewers who not only witness but also experience traces of sound in the visual compositions.
