A photographic exploration of longing, doubt, and emotional projection. Inspired by the Korean concept of In-Yun—the invisible threads that connect lives over time—the series navigates the fragile space between memory and imagination, between desire and absence. Each image is a fragment of a world that feels close but remains just out of reach. The work moves between intimacy and distance, reflecting a deeply personal inner landscape shaped by love, regret, and loneliness. Through quiet observations and staged illusions, it questions what we hold onto, what slips away, and whether we ever truly see what is in front of us—or only what we hope to find.
