February 26, 2012 - 1000 Doors
South Korean artist Choi Jeong-Hwa created this 10-story art installation made up of 1000 used doors.
From an interview at the Creators Project:
I attended Hongik Art School and started painting there. Around 1986 or 1987, I entered a contest and happened to receive the grand prize—a ticket to Europe. Basically, I made the paintings I thought they’d like in order to enter the contest and travel to Europe. When I returned, I burnt all my drawings and decided to never paint again. I accomplished my goal of winning a trip to Europe, but I was ashamed, and decided that from that point on I would use my work to portray only the things I truly felt. For example, I think construction sites are rough and alive, but I don’t want to paint them because I can’t seem to express those feelings in two dimensions. After I made that realization, I started to pick up things from the street and take photos of them.

Think of all the signs you could hang up inside...
- Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
- Please, close the door on your way out.
- Watch the first step
and song titles:
- "Open the door, Richard" (this one shows your age)
- "Behind closed doors"
- "Knockin' on Heaven's Door"

A whole new manufacturing opportunity...

When God closes a door, there's a fair chance another one opens up.
