Wonchul Lee is a photographer whose works are characterised by combinations of objects or atmospheres with conflicting meanings. Artificial light and natural light, life and death, quantitative time and qualitative time... When these opposite states exist in one frame, it feels unrealistic, and such images create a photographic landscape that only exists in the work.

TIME is a work of trying to talk about time through the clock and drawing the existence of time out of the clock. Through long exposure, the clock hands disappear from the clock, and only the scale exists. Eliminating the time in the clock erases the uniform time (quantitative time) of modern people and emphasizes the personal time (qualitative time) beyond it. The image generated in this way appears unrealistic, becomes an opportunity to rethink the existence of time, and at the same time represents a recording of a moment, due to the nature of the photographic medium.
