Carrying, Caring
(2022)
In the clearly composed, performative images of “Carrying, Caring,” Hyejeong Yoo examines the emotional bond and areas of conflict between a mother and a daughter as an exemplary metaphor for a social model. By striking a balance between objective examination and subjective sentiment, Yoo reveals the struggle between distance, proximity, and close attachment with touching intensity.
