CHONG IL WOO

The expectation of Woo’s recent works is as always immense, as his work is often the center of discussion.

The “Here and Now” of traditional photography is destroyed by blending photography with fine arts and joining past and present. Is this really a photograph? This kind of confusion will be naturally untangled when the viewers see the artist now standing with the post-modern visual arts, which frees the medium from its usual confines.
