Jaiyoung Cho

Jaiyoung Cho's work begins with an interest in the way we cognize. Each person's different ways of cognition create their own reality. This is why the question of how we recognize precedes the question of what we recognize. Cho looks into the working process of the existing method of cognition through events and phenomena in her daily life. And she observes and experiments how it relates to things we take for granted.
