Self Promo (2004) | An image can be a destination.
Reflecting on my personal journey back to Korea as a Korean adoptee after years of being in a different country. Rediscovering my adoption photos became the catalyst for this self-promotion project.
The process involved scanning my adoption papers to create textured backgrounds, incorporating black and white photos as tip-ons, and carefully selecting colors to let the imagery and narrative speak for themselves.
This 8-page piece was meticulously crafted, down to the vellum envelope that showcased my Korean name stamp in red on the back cover. A true blend of personal history and creative expression.
This 8-pager was mailed out in a vellum envelope so you could see my Korean name stamp that was in red on the back cover.
