[Critique] Day break, The Strategy
Jung Jihyun is a photographer who primarily photographs collapsing buildings. In other words, his work consists of witnessing the moment a building breaks apart. Once such a scene is captured in a photograph, the question of how to present it inevitably follows. Of course, the question of how to photograph the witnessed scene must also be considered.

《Shades of Furs》, 2022.06.22 – 2022.07.17, Hakgojae Gallery
Shades of Furs is a series about a certain kind of darkness. Such darkness is neither as beautiful as black silk nor as tender as the touch of fins. It merely stays as a sharp and acute fragment, like a void that captures the unidentifiable inside the frame. Looking at the photographs, we cannot discern who they are or what they are doing. Therefore, these are the most uncertain, dubious, and ambivalent among the works of Noh Suntag.
