SEWOONG KIM
I was born in Seoul, when the leaves were in the fall, now I’m living in Suji, Yong-In.
Comparatively, it was late to begin taking a photo under the education, from 2013, which is the year
I just graduated from high school. Until 19, I wanted to be a broadcasting PD or a travel writer. I loved to create something that express what I imagine, what is my own, or who I am. However, in the process of applying the university, I thought of another way that fit to my dream and even I like to do. Whenever I grab a camera and walk around, ordinary stuffs come to me in different sight, through the lens.
A small place, or the private place means a lot to me, because most of the works are taken here.
For instance, “<The Events>, 2015”, only needs a 40X40 inch table.
I love to go out and take a picture of streets, nature, people, sky and cloud, but that doesn’t mean I work in the public spaces. I only know what I’m taking and in fact, nobody cares or wonders what I’m doing.
Recently, I’m planning to start a new project, <The Jobs>. taking various artists or professionals.
The motive behind the work is that most of Korean students, or the people just graduated don’t know what they want to be exactly. This project can be an introduction of various choices in the future.
