Choi Xooang
So I was recently very impressed to discover Choi Xooang. Based in Seoul Korea and only just a few years older than me, this sculptor is doing some truly amazing work. The best write up I’ve seen so far in looking up this artist comes from Slash/Paris and goes into the various exhibitions seen thus far (see link)

I believe that I am most drawn to these images of stone figures which incorporate highly realistic human components, such as I’ve shown here. Choi Xooang’s work also includes more complete and elaborate human figures but it’s these I find myself the most fascinated by.
And I just couldn’t refrain from showing this. The piece is called Pruritis. It’s true, I’ve got a soft spot in my heart for hands, but come on, just look at this! I love this work!
