Jiho Lee
She exists
My photography project explores the tension between societal expectations and women's subjectivity, particularly within the context of Korean society. I depict women who lose or distort their identities to conform to male-centric ideals. Through costumes, makeup, and symbolic gestures, such as men lifting bed sheets to metaphorically represent the male gaze, my work visualizes the prejudices and pressures. Ultimately, my project reflects my desire for women to reclaim their narratives not as mothers, wives, or daughters defined by others, but as autonomous individuals with their own voices and lived experiences. Through this work, I hope to honor and give visibility to all women who have been silenced, erased, or forced into molds not of their choosing.
