Can you guess what the most expensive jeans in the world are priced? several thousand? Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands?

However, in front of the "jeans" we are going to talk about today, the price of hundreds of thousands can be said to be a slight witch.

Christie's Hong Kong Auction House once sold several pairs of jeans for US$270,000+, equivalent to about RMB 1.8 million.

is somewhat different from ordinary jeans. These jeans look like this:

This work, called "Harbor", is all made of jeans of different colors. If you look closely, you can see every familiar element of jeans in the picture - pockets, zippers, buttons ...

In the same year, Hong Kong Christie's also sold several other pairs of "jeans". The price of is equivalent to about RMB 560,000 :

Although the price is incomparable to more than one million, buying a few pairs of jeans for more than 500,000 is also very sky-high.

Who is the one who creates such amazing value for hundreds of dollars in jeans? - Choi So Young (transliteration of Choi So Young), from Busan, South Korea, born in 1980.

From birth to adulthood, Cui Surong spent all his time in his hometown Busan . Whether it is a slightly crowded and dilapidated old city where ordinary people live, or the beautiful scenery and rich people, every flower and grass in Busan is deeply remembered by Cui Surong:

When she was studying in art at Dongyi University in Busan, she often loved to wear casual clothes and suddenly got inspiration from the most common items around her - jeans.

Because of how many years the age difference between her sister and her fashionable sister wears the remaining jeans and denim clothes, which has become Cui Surong's most common and favorite item.

The colors of jeans of different shades will leave some traces of floating. The special fabrics and colors of these pants made Cui Sorong have the idea of ​​painting with these fabrics. As for what to draw, it is very simple, and he is familiar with his hometown, Busan, which he cannot be familiar with.

She set out with some jeans or denim jackets she didn't wear, cut the clothes and pants into strips of cloth of various shapes, and gradually formed paintings according to her memory of her hometown in her mind.

In Cui Sorong's works, you can see many iconic places in Busan, such as the Gancheondong Cultural Village with layers of houses:

Whether it is buildings, streets, bridges, sea water, grassland, even light and weather, Cui Surong can express it perfectly with cowboys.

is also a corner of the Korean streets with high and low intertwined heights. There are blue sky and white clouds here, as if you can feel the sunlight:

Everyone has worn colorful jeans, but only Cui Surong thought of combining these distinctive jeans into works of art.

Tie-dyeed jeans (clothes) can be used directly to make the sky of white clouds:

Even the strap of overalls can transform into a telephone pole in one second:

In addition to these more special jean elements, the more common jeans (clothes) elements are fully applied by Cui Surong, and they really do not waste any thread or button.

For example, the picture below depicts the undeveloped Haeundae in Cui Surong's childhood memory:

The house in the lower right corner of the picture fully utilizes the fabric, buttons and zippers of the jeans. The fur on the trouser legs also makes a lawn, and the sense of space in the picture is also stronger:

These artistic "jeans" bring Cui Surong from the Korean art world to a larger international stage. As her works are exhibited around the world, she also left a memory of the places she has been to with denim.

Hong Kong in China:

New York in the United States:

London in the United Kingdom:

However, although I have walked through so many places, what Cui Surong loves the most and also the one that can bring her infinite inspiration the most is still the small place - Busan.

No matter how famous it is, no matter how many places around the world, most of Cui Surong's creations are still in his hometown of Busan, roads and viaducts, an unknown alley and residential building, or city skyline :

You may not have been to Busan, and you may not be familiar with the scenes in the painting, but Cui Surong's works will always inexplicably bring people a sense of strange familiarity.

Hometown and jeans, these two elements are not only her memory, but also many people's memories.

The jeans I like to wear most when I was a teenager. One day, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the streets at dusk. Although her works do not depict your and my hometown, they can make many people empathize.

Perhaps, her works also evoke some beautiful memories of you in the past? When I was young, I was wearing jeans and ran on a street in my hometown...
