OBJECTS TO LIVE
LEAF ART BY SUNGWOO Choi
Sung Woo Choi's leaf spoons, made of wood patiently carved in his workshop in northern Seoul, amaze us: they touch something deep within us, a graceful object that doesn't even need to have a use if we want it to, just infinite contemplation, which does good to the soul.

The Art of Leaves by Sungwoo Choi
At the beginning of Sungwoo Choi's life there is a job, that of mechanical engineer, and an industry, that of automobile construction, in a country, Korea, and a city, Seoul. And one day there is an encounter, during a trip to Paris and a visit to the Pompidou Center, with a painting: the Black Square by the painter Kazimir Malevich. A dazzling work that when it was created in 1915 opened the door to a new language and a new creative world born of forms, that of abstraction and minimalism.
