@@davidchoe David Choe, the artist bold, Whose hands spin tales both new and old, Takes a stuffed bear, soft with seams, And unthreads it from childhood dreams. He pops its head with practiced ease, As if unraveling mysteries, And then he seeks another form- A plush giraffe, a woolen storm. With needle, thread, and whispered charm, He sews a hybrid, palm to palm. A bear’s round head on slender neck, A chimera born from gentle wreck. Each creation speaks of wild play, Of minds that never walk the same way, David Choe, with needle true, Stitches chaos into something new. In his art, the broken thrive, In this world of dream and drive, He redefines what’s stuffed, what’s whole, And sews the fragments of his soul.
Hello David, I met you while we were eating outside of the grocery store a few weekends ago, with wife and my two girls. You were so nice to say hi to all of them and take a photo with us. My brother and cousin were blown away when I showed them the photo. I just wanted to say thank you for all the years of helping me put a smile on my face during my own down times, as well as through the good times! I remember playing your interview with your mom, for my own mom, like 15 years ago because I thought they had such a similar story and personality. I hope you’re feeling a bit better off the meds. I did the same like 5 years back and even though it was one of the scariest things I’ve been through, I enjoy feeling feelings again. For me, fishing and playing with my kids has been changed everything for me. If you ever want to try some fishing, let me know. I’d be happy to take you out! Thanks again!
I respect you for putting artists on the spot, most of us didn’t have enough of that in life. So instead of mastering our crafts out loud, some of us stagnate in secrecy.
Every couple of months I click on one of these videos and I feel a bit more like myself after. always a bright face to see in the dark that is the internet.
Real human interaction. There's not enough of it in the world today. So cool you would take the time to chat with people and see what's going on with them.
You say ‘Don’t laugh’ and I say ‘Too late’. I am so glad to see you are doing well Choe. You lift my spirits with what you do and where you go. You are the creator, the artist and the director of your own fate.
Your the man David we all gotta get outta our heads sometimes thrifty sounds like the way to do it believe me I e been having to leaRN that all over again PEACE AND LOVE BRO
I have this saying about dude's I trust. I say "I'd go skydiving with with him." You are someone I would sky dive with. You've got so much raw talent and inspiration. What a Blessing.
I’ve become obsessed with your art. Like the videos. Theeeeeeeee, energy… idk man it’s an effortless personality that I see the pain in, but it translates to something so fun.
You are the treasure found! So enjoy how you have shown up in this world💜🔥💜. (btw: Late great Saturday Jim Cranna Improv gal, here: “always say yes and be better than yourself” (😳eye contact!! )
Arnold was my grandfather. I remember seeing that painting hanging around when i was little. Could not believe it when you found that! I absolutely love what you have done with it and i know he would have too.
7:00 Dime-store Ed Norton is low-key committed to the bit. Keith-hipster-shirt, turned out to be the red herring of the video ;) But, Choe rockin' the Gummo 'T' and politely imposing himself upon the locals is great! Plus, those toys are like Art as Agit-Prop for kids; planting the seed of subversity in the young minds that find them.
My one year old Norman loves watching your videos and you. He’s teething something fierce right now, so it was nice to see him smiling after a long day! Thank you for doing what you do!

I love it when I'm sent shows I missed. They always land right where I need um. This one lifted me up and inspired new perspectives. I appreciate your striving. Blessings
This video renews my artistic practice! Renews my faith in art! Gives me hope. Wow! I get so stressed out by "why am I making this?" Is it for money or for decoration or self expression? Is it therapy? Is it fun? But damn if David Choe didn't just blow my mind!! Just make stuff!!
Improv was fantastic. Emotions were forcefully put into my heart and my face changed due to that fact. At the end of scene I found myself smiling when he got his father's painting 🖼. The widowed ex wife pawned it, you found it and gave the man something priceless.
How’s this for supportive? The world really needs you now, so please keep it up. I started watching this series Wednesday, Nov. 6, and I definitely needed it!
Thrift shops are the fuckin best art supply store ever, excellent people watching and fellow weirdo friends to be detection location. 10/10 on the Fuckin yeah! list. Love you, Dave! 🖤
I really do love your work David, and I know you hear that all the time so this youtube message won't mean much, but you really are incredible. The work you do is so good and original. I know I will never be able to afford your work, but it would be cool if you put out a catalog type book of all your favorite paintings. Just wanted to say that though, you are freaking amazing.
Hey David, just wanted to say you’re a huge inspiration. I’m an artist and musician but you don’t inspire me for those things. I just really appreciate your approach to life. I’m in a huge slump of depression and I need to get out there more and do things like this; meet people and talk to them, hear their stories and make connections. Life has been extremely hard lately and I used to be so full of emotions and inspiration to create that has been gone recently but I don’t want to be. Who knows what will break the chain effect of this bad feeling but I know it’s not sitting here overthinking about my problems, I need to get out there and see what happens. Much love 💕
Dude was actually a pretty decent actor😂
Yeah, he really did that
Reminded me Ed Norton
he was really good
He smashed it out of the park
He is amazing!!
What a lovely supportive and caring comments section ❤ love you all thank you for your kind words I’m trying my best
Inspired and liking the rawness of David
I appreciate your inspiration
Great video, thanks for making it.
Looking forward to more vids like this!
Hope you are taking care of yourself
Your videos feel literally like my secondary therapy. ❤

Staying on the phone while talking to David choe is a serial killer move.
Man was probably on hold for hours 😅
bros just acting
If anything thats how David wants to be treated - like a person.
Edward Nortan's younger cousin kinda gives me serial killer vibes too 😂
Guys he’s not a god and an o he’s a good guy
That improv with Hans was awesome, dope video.
👍🏽

"i am joseph" is a good thing to whisper at people in public
Nah bro the crazy part is the "I am Joseph" in reverse as he walks back. f ing killed me
Yo! I’m gonna start doing that.
Parking lot improv was fire

This is amazing. Thank you, and someone give the acting man in tge car park a job..
4:18 lol did that dude come out also wearing a Keith Haring shirt? I sense some Keith Haring shirt envy going on.
Real human interaction. There's not enough of it in the world today.
So cool you would take the time to chat with people and see what's going on with them.
