Emptiness
Seojin Ahn Is a Junior attending Chadwick International School in Songdo, Incheon, South Korea. His art practice is to create photo-based images. He developed and harnessed his skills in photography and the utilization of tools such as Illustrator and Photoshop. Through his ventures beyond the borders of his home country, Korea, he travels abroad to encapsulate moments that depict a profound sense of void. His work reflects the solitude and introspection within the objects or the composition of everyday objects and scenes. His art is also a pursuit of moments that convey emptiness that subtly blends in within our lives, inviting viewers to a space where uneasiness coexists with the feeling of comfort and peace. With the idea that he seeks beauty and narrative within isolation, his work is like a meditation of the spaces that rest between the perceptions of space and solitude through the lenses of his vision. His exploration of the void spaces in our day-to-day lives allows a deeper appreciation for the serene beauty and unsettling tranquility of the “absence within the presence,” making his work a compelling journey into the overlooked emptiness we hold in our lives.
