Catalogue of Sunah Choi's exhibition at Bielefelder Kunstverein in 2005. Jan Verwoert writes, 'In her videos, photographs and installations she shows both how the eye thoroughly changes the world's appearance and also how things and people in that silent inner sphere never reveal more of themselves than their surfaces. In other words, her work firstly describes the contradiction innate in assuming that the camera's eye defines the innermost being of the world and yet remains external to it. Second, she not only describes this contradiction, she actively works with it. One could say that in her work Choi accentuates the paradox of simultaneous interiority and externality in the relationship of the camera to the world, and in the process, devises her own language from this accentuated paradoxical formulation.' Artist biography is provided.
