Catalogue Essay
The series Full Moon Story originated from a commissioned project by Vogue Korea to re-interpret the Hanbok (traditional Korean costume). In the present image, the young girl – her sumptuous Hanbok ballooning around her – looks below at the floor where kittens roam freely. Kim explains how he achieved his lyrical and modern staging: “I wanted a neutral stage; only shadows and reflections mattered to me. Colours, faces and models were enhanced by cold and light tones, creating an almost surreal feeling."
