Published programme

Ko Ryeomyeong is a photographer exploring the minute world of objects that is difficult for human sight to capture. Close-up photographs enlarged into large images make familiar objects unfamiliar and newly perceptible. Beyond representation, the work reveals textures and structures beneath surfaces and the intrinsic properties of matter. Even in a digital age, the artist insists on an analogue camera and special film used for astronomical observation, producing colours and textures difficult to encounter in ordinary photography. This expands perceptions of everyday objects and proposes new aesthetic experiences. Restrained empty space that does not distract from the central object naturally concentrates the viewer’s gaze at the centre, another characteristic of the work. The Grape Series exemplifies this practice. Grapes encountered by chance in daily life are seen as one small universe whose vitality and symbolism are explored. Based on natural forms, the artist adds varied materials and digital colouring to make distinctive, sensory images. Combining real objects and imagination, these complex images invite diverse emotions and interpretations.
