Choi
aka. Jura,
“Being fascinated by the mysterious, unexplainable concept of life, death and the afterlife, it provokes daydreaming and imagining an answer to how it could be seen.Visualizing Mortality is a series of illustrations of processing and reaction to one’s mortality, which leads to a change in perspective affecting how we may see our environment, leading to a psychological affect that blurs the line between reality and fantasy.”
An artist/ illustrator based in Toronto ON, CanadaInspired a lot from music and film, many of my personal work consists of daydreams or made-up subjects that are dreamlike. I find joy in my work being open to personal interpretations.Although recent works consists of digital drawings, I very much like to work by hand in acrylic and oil paintings.
