Living and working in Gwang Ju-Si, South Korea

When you look at the drawing of a flower by him, you can see that he observed depth of the inside for a long time and had a long conversation with a subject. Finally, he completes the composition through the shape of the flower that he desired and his own color. It is the painter Choong Yeol, Yoo, who shows his desire and transcendental questions of emotions in art. That means he's the best of expressing the composition between reality and transcendence.
The sky is the reason for existence of itself, earth, and humankind. It also gives universal order to all of us and all of us mean earth. The sky, earth, humankind are connected as one but each element has independent presence. Therefore any flowers and women depicted in Yoo's work means a symbolic expression for that kind of world. It is also the fact that we can read a general sign of the matter of color in his work.

ThisIf the color is an ideal and physical reality that endlessly struggles among a human's desire, physical presence, and life and death, Yoo's drawing of flower and women if another name for color. The painter Yoo faces sight with no boundary and physical power which pulls his soul of art in plastic consciousness. Let's remind that Choong Yeol Yoo is the painter who doesn't compromise with physical elements and put his power firmly into the work, which turns to more realistic and transparent ones and gets someone else's applause. So I expect a fine masterpiece from Yoo in the upcoming year. (Eun Jung, Jang, the executive vice president. The National Arts Association, Inc. Seoul branch)
