Chun - (DE)

Chun ranks among that circle of innovative artists who are currently preventing the Austrian stasis of contemporary painting.

After moving to Vienna in 2015 without much life experience or familiarity with German, he began his computer science studies at Vienna University of Technology in 2018. In a creative paradigm shift, a year later he joined the art and fashion school Herbststrasse before entering the renowned fashion design program at the University of Applied Arts Vienna.

The direct involvement with textiles and embroidery there led him into a painterly practice in its holistically broadest sense. For this reason, he has been studying not only fashion design but contextual painting at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna since 2021.
