Choi Jeong Hwa is an artist whose work moves between visual art, graphic design, industrial design and architecture. Choi is often inspired by the harmony and chaos of the urban environment, resulting in his playful practice.

With You Are My Sunshine as an overarching title, the work at Queen Sirikit National Convention Center emphasizes loving, respecting, and understanding each other through the theme of environment and recycling. It begins with the question: do we need so much, and is extinction a crisis? His large-scale installation invites the audience to engage, participate, and play, prompting us to reflect on whether we are facing a true crisis or merely experiencing a natural process of change.

Breathing is a set of colorful fruits, vegetables and a blooming lotus at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC) and the centralwOrld. This is the ‘Breathing Forest’—the temple. By visiting the temple, the audience is encouraged to be mindful of their inhalation and exhalation and to be greeted by the concept that ‘I am your mother, you are my mother, I am your child, and you are my child.’ At the heart of the BACC, Golden Girl, a large mother figure, also awaits, inviting the audience to breathe love together with the Golden Girl. To complement the artworks, Choi will host many ‘softwares’—programs where the artist and audience will engage in conversation, share and spread ideas.
