Roaming under the Apple Tree - 2020



When I was 24, I saw an apple tree for the first time in my life. I wondered at its difference from my imagination. There, under the tree, I photographed an apple after eating hundreds of them.

Stepping into the gap between images and language, "Roaming under the Apple Tree" presents my exploration of photography. It questions the purpose of capturing daily moments. Alongside this journey of self-challenge, I explore the potential of using photography as a visual meditation method.
