Architecture: Honorable Mention 2021 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The pavilion, which was the place of cultural, political and cultural exchange of scholars in history, has been inserting my unique way into the picture to express modern simplicity and harmony with nature.
The same goes for photo darkroom work. According to historical records, there were more than 1,700 pavilions in Korea. However, there are 270 registered cultural assets and 300 non-registered cultural assets. So far, I have been filming over 250 pavilions all over the country since 2008. I shot on a 4x5 size black and white film, and I also worked on developing and printing the film in my darkroom workshop.
I believe that I have a great mission to maintain and preserve our traditional culture. So I always practice my mind, mirroring the lessons of the Chinese poet Li Bai, "If lumps are polished without interruption, they will become needles someday." I have enhanced my professional skills and visit places where I haven't taken them yet, and would like to leave my country's pavilion in our history as a recording culture with exhibitions and photo books. This work is not only an opportunity to instill a deeply rooted historical consciousness to our descendants in Korea, but also to be considered as a mission that is meaningful in terms of inheriting a global heritage.
AUTHOR
My name is Kim Sim Hoon.

I have a stubbornness that doesn't easily follow fashion. Throw away handy digital photos
I prefer to work with complex, sluggish analog large black and white films.
I like new and novelties. I have a strong desire to know what I do not know.
If you think it's worth the challenge, don't hesitate to look for something old.
My excitement about pavilion and sperm is felt in the photograph.
My patience with photography is extraordinary.
If you're not satisfied, there's the patience to look for and find the end.
Looking back at the spring and winter,
If you don't like it, change the sun and find it again.
“Would it be a needle someday if you go without stopping?”
The sword of the mind is sharpened by the mirror of the two hundred.
The same is true for darkroom work.
According to the record, there were more than 1,700 sperm
There are currently 270 registered cultural properties and 300 unregistered cultural properties.
