A dog-exclusive clothing store, a dog-exclusive grooming salon, dog-exclusive organic food, and even a dog-exclusive omakase restaurant have emerged. Young couples, choosing not to have children, opt for luxury strollers for their dogs instead. If the situation is like this, it might be considered appropriate to categorize pets as part of the 'new humanity,' just like humans. This series is a collaboration between AI and myself. These are digital collage works that are created by carving out only the necessary parts from multiple images created by AI and recombining them in Photoshop.
After graduating from university, Hyun-ju Ha worked as a journalist, editor, and planner, creating various content by processing images and text. She has been passionate about photography for over 10 years. Initially self-taught through photo cafes, blogs, and cultural centers, she now continues her studies at Hongik University Graduate School of Industrial Arts, focusing on photography design.
Her unique style involves surreal photo collages, known as Dépaysement, where she reassembles cut-out parts of her photos into new compositions. This meticulous process defines her artistic identity.
