    Honorable Mention in Architecture / Abstract

Curved architecture and its reflection create a symmetrical field of form, light, and shadow. At the point of a shadow-drawn triangle, a lone figure anchors the gaze and brings the image into balance. Though rooted in a real place, the scene reads as an abstract composition.

I’m a South Korea–based photographer drawn to stillness, structure, and the subtle rhythms of everyday spaces. With a background in science and surgery, I tend to see the world through a lens of precision—yet I seek poetry in shadow, repetition, and silence. I mostly shoot with Leica gear, exploring themes of minimalism and abstraction in the urban and architectural details around me.
