Young Do Jeong

Jeong’s creative process unfolds as a visual narrative, beginning with spontaneous doodles that gradually evolve into a cohesive world. Every mark—whether painted, stained, or dripped—serves as a foundational element in this developing space. Fragmented images swirl and shift with kaleidoscopic energy, exploring the ambiguity of meaning. Rather than using traditional paint tubes, Jeong employs calligraphy brushes dipped in small cups of paint, allowing the images to grow organically. Through layering, he emphasizes the natural progression of his work, merging deliberate actions with unexpected discoveries. Various elements—human and animal shapes, abstract or symbolic forms, geometric color fields—appear only to dissolve and vanish in the next moment.
