artists are shut out by banks
Until the next exhibition, the next performance. For artists, income gaps are an unavoidable reality. For fellow artists forced into predatory loans just to afford paint, canvas, and studio rent, proceeds from this artwork become the Seed Fund — extending a fair hand at fair rates.

About the Artist
Artist Choi Yoonjung seeks to closely examine the era in which she lives. Pop Kids is a series conceived to express the present. Contemporary society is one where media exerts greater influence than at any point in the past. In this society, we are invited to act by media before we even desire something ourselves, and we are drawn to it. In Pop Kids, eyeglasses are used as a device symbolizing the frame of our thinking shaped by media influence. What are the desire and mode of existence of modern people, whose cognitive frameworks are so profoundly influenced by media?
