Jeoungtae Cho’s artworks are layered with his life and the times he has experienced. (…) His paintings face those around him and focus on human lives based on personal narratives.(…) Speaking through his works, he has created a unique world of painting by restoring paintings’ original role as demanded by the times (Chorong Yang, art historian).
