Sang Ho Chung (South Korea, 1983) explores the possibilities of oil painting technique by reflecting upon personal and collective memory. This memory is heavily influenced by the digital infrastructure and imagery of the internet. Personal objects such as childhood toys, his own photographs and appropriated and altered web images are juxtaposed and recomposed as a representation of personal and historical memory; this creates parallels relevant to contemporary culture and art history. Sang Ho recently completed his MFA at Goldsmith, after his BFA at the Rhode Island School of Design.
