Chase the Wind and Touch the Sky 2022
232 cm x 36 cm x 10 cm
An inkjet print, cut and rolled
For a while, I was numb with my emotions. The photographs I looked at didn't speak anything to me and had no attraction. They also were seemingly dead like me. Having no intention, I try to cut it circa 1cm in the vertical direction. Interestingly, the dense cuttings created a surface and rhythm. And their gaps created tension between them. Come to think of it, since 2011, 'cutting' has been the most representative technique for dealing with photographs that I deal with when expanding photography. Paradoxically, the cutting issue that degrades images created some attractions that bring vitality not only to my emotional ego but to photographs. 09/05/22 Sunyoung Park
