Yong Min Park is a photographer based in NYC. He focuses on capturing moments of silence and dream-like scenes through the camera. He started photography because he was drawn to the hyper-realistic potential of this art form, which can both depict reality and distort it. He is mainly influenced by Edward Steichen, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Andre Kertesz. His work varies from snapshots to conceptual fine art photography.
