Born in South Korea

Lived and Studied in the United States for a decade

Seoul-based Artist

Jooeun Bae, born in South Korea, moved to the U.S. independently at 15 to study for a decade. Embracing both Korean and American cultures, she developed a unique identity. This blend inspired her passion for combining diverse elements, and collage is an essential method that allows her to put her imagination together. Thus, she chose collage photography to best express her vision, standing out in the world of photography.
