Reflection Studies – Sanghyeok Lee

Right after launching ‘I’ll be your mirror,’ I invited my good friend, Dahahm, a photographer, to join the project. I proposed that we explore the concept of reflection, which was central to the project’s theme.

Over the course of two years, we worked on this project. Initially, our ideas were vague, but eventually, we honed in on the concept of reflection as a study of light, shadow, colors, space, and objects that together create images. This led to a series of photography that explores the visual concepts of velocity, repetition, and balance arising from the interplay of these elements.

As the curator of the exhibition, I placed a strong emphasis on reflection within the exhibition space. We created glass mirrors and incorporated them with the photographs, aiming for viewers to encounter their reflections throughout the exhibition.
