Sunah Choi’s new monograph brings together works the artist has made in the last five years, revealing a process of development that is defined both by continuity and by productive contingency: while Choi’s interest in spatial (re)organization is an abiding feature of her oeuvre, each work plays with specific antitheses. The artist is currently formulating these antitheses with a particular focus on materials like glass, wood, and metal, which she uses to develop scenarios and objects that oscillate between sculpture, architecture, and interior decoration.

The book begins with a sequence of graphic compositions that probe the affinities between individual works in terms of their formal aesthetics; this is followed by a selection of exhibition views and a performative series of photographic images. It includes an interview with the artist and two essays as well as a richly illustrated catalogue raisonné.

Sunah Choi (b. 1968 in Busan, Korea) was awarded the Hannah-Höch Förderpreis in 2018. She lives and works in Berlin.
