Yunju Shin About CV Instagram

Through experiencing various forms of violence such as neglect, domestic violence, school violence, sexual assault, and death, I have felt complex and painful emotions like self-abuse, despair, anxiety, and suicidal impulses. I visualize these emotions through photography, thereby releasing the emotions accumulated within me.

Expressing my emotions is akin to venting my anger. Therefore, I metaphorically represent my feelings by scratching or puncturing the surface of the photographic film, or even tearing it apart. In this way, I express the emotions that arise from my experiences and capture those around me who often suffer similar pains and those who have caused me trauma. By continuously documenting my current self through photographs, I depict all the events, misfortunes, and self-confessions of my life.
