Abstraction in Photography International Art Exhibition | HANNAZ

My work is about my utopia. In a messy reality, photography allows me to create an edited reality. Through my photography, I feel simplified and comfortable. It is my escape and my utopia. This desire to get into the frame led me to create the red ball project. The appearance of a red ball in a peaceful and beautiful space makes the viewer question. Why is it there and how? Yeah, I simply threw the ball into the space and shot it. I just wanted to get into a peaceful place like a child. The red ball is the pure desire to exist in my utopia.
