Seoul 서울

This project was completed while undertaking a summer school programme at Hanyang University.

High-rise buildings and elaborate city architecture have become symbolic of modernism that now pervades Seoul, South Korea. But not everyone has taken to it in the same way.

In the nation's transition from a rural, agrarian society to a modern one, how have the locals redefined their spatial relations, and how do such relations differ across the population? I created this photo series in attempt to visualise this juxtaposition.
