Choi "plunges into the moment, without any particular idea or project, and focuses on the shapes produced and what they provoke". (Sung Won Kim)
Wook-kyung Choi dreamt of becoming a painter from an early age in a country where women struggled to be recognised as artists. In the early 1960s, she left South Korea to study in the United States. Her discovery of the abstract expressionists, particularly the "incommensurable spaces" of Jackson Pollock, led her to gestural painting. Choi created dynamic spaces punctuated by powerfully contradictory tensions in which colour played a central role.
