"Unbecoming" captures a quiet unraveling of identity. The blurred figure resists clarity—hovering between presence and absence, self and ideal. A single thread stretches across the image, suggesting both tension and surrender. This is not a portrait of who someone is, but of what remains when perfection is no longer sustainable. As form dissolves, a question emerges: is the pursuit of the ideal also the undoing of the self?

I’m a photographer based in Seoul, drawn to quiet intersections between space, time, and human presence. I often find myself searching for what’s easily overlooked—moments of stillness, tension, or fragile beauty. Through careful composition and natural light, I try to create images that feel suspended between structure and emotion, presence and absence.
