Photography / by Mirena Rhee

My first artwork was photography. Since 2005 I've been taking photographs of people, cities, objects, my own art, my drawings, paintings, installations, performances as well as other people's art paintings, sculptures, and many others.

Photography taught me how to see. Thanks to my camera and my computer I can make a photograph a perfect visual experience and make it my own. Because my computer never forgets it allows me to see the patterns in the world, the lines, the colors, and the faces. Out of these observations came the same kind of project where I categorized images along the lines of thoughts.

Until this day I photograph my own work with small exceptions.

All photographs on this website are by me, a small number of images here are not photographs but digitally generated landscapes also generated by me.
