creates sculptural environments that explore how perception is shaped through material, light, and time. Working with handmade paper, plaster, wood, gelatin, and glycerin, she traces quiet transformations as materials respond to gravity, humidity, touch, and duration, allowing her works to soften, erode, collapse, and harden again as living records of time and contact.
Cho received her MFA from Yale University and her BFA from RISD. Her work has been exhibited at James Fuentes Gallery, Tina Kim Gallery, Galerie Kandlhofer (Vienna), Gallery Chang, Minot State University, and the Hongik Museum of Art (Seoul). Her work has been featured in New American Paintings (Issue 177) and The Chosun Ilbo, and she is a recipient of Yale University's Council on East Asian Studies Summer Travel & Research Grant. She teaches Pre-College Drawing at RISD and will join Western Connecticut State University as an adjunct instructor in Drawing in Fall 2026.
