Haneyl Choi

Haneyl Choi(b. 1991) calls himself a sculptor and translates the surrounding environment and various other issues of his interest through a 3-dimensional language. Persistently exploring the definition of sculpture, Choi’s work subverts the conventional notions of sculpture as something fixed and eternal, by mixing various matters to make it seem flexible or as something with a temporary form.

Commonwealth and Council is a gallery in Koreatown, Los Angeles founded in 2010. Our program is rooted in our commitment to explore how a community of artists can sustain our co-existence through generosity and hospitality. Commonwealth and Council celebrates our manifold identities and experiences through the shared dialogue of art—championing practices by women, queer, POC, and our ally artists to build counter-histories that reflect our individual and collective realities.
