On 9 and 11 May, the Korean Cultural Centre in South Africa (KCCSA) hosted a special photography workshop with photographer Hyoung-Sik Jin, held in conjunction with his exhibition YOONSEUL.

Over two sessions, participants explored the art of photography through discussions on composition, framing, balance, and visual storytelling. Drawing from his own artistic practice, Hyoung-Sik Jin shared insights into capturing atmosphere, light, and fleeting moments that often pass unnoticed in everyday life.

The workshop encouraged participants to look beyond technical aspects of photography and consider how emotion, perspective, and observation shape the way an image is experienced. Through practical exercises and creative discussion, attendees developed a deeper understanding of photography as both an artistic and reflective medium.

Held alongside the YOONSEUL exhibition, the programme offered audiences a unique opportunity to engage more closely with the ideas and visual language behind the artist’s work while exploring their own creative perspectives through the camera lens.
