Dayoung Kang’s swallow series depicts the anonymity and lack of identity in modern society. Faceless characters inhabit the images; unable to communicate with others in the society. The hidden wounds we carry haunt us, yet we continue to swallow the pain. Visit her website here.

This will be the last in the feature on Chung-ang University. I hoped you enjoyed it.

    Like the first shot – I wonder how the effect was achieved?

    I really enjoy the look of these images, how the look as though they are printed on fabric. I also feel so alone when I look at them. I feel that this is achieved best through loosing the identity of the person in the photo. Had we seen a face we would some how try to relate to the person we see. These images are also very strong by the use of color in each; the choice feels very intentional.
