Jonghwan Jeong (b. South Korea, 1996) based in Netherlands.
My work examines how individuals clash with the social structures that surround them. I look at how our routine daily lives expose the invisible rules we follow. Through a mix of drawing, painting, and performance, I embrace constant movement and change. I use humor and the surreal to turn the "everyday" into a form of resistance, finding power within the absurdity of the modern world.
