Re-membrance of the Remembrance
Hye-Ryoung Min


“These photographs are visual diaries dedicated to my written diaries and evidence of those times coursing through me once more, where my expectations mingled with regret, compassion collided with fear, and scars ached and lingered. They are an act of earnest yearning, consolation, forgiveness and resignation. Facing myself in the moments of brooding light I met the gleaming shadow of my past re-membered into my new diaries.”_Hye-Ryoung Min

Hye-Ryoung Min, a photographer based in New York, works on reflecting human relationships and life in her daily life. Her first book, ‘Re-membrance of the Remembrance’, is a visual reconstruction of memories contained in the artist’s 70 journals that she has written since childhood. This diaristic book carries her memories of the past, both fleeted and lingering, as still lifes, landscapes, and self-portraits accompanied by excerpts from her journal entries.
