📸 The Light-Capturing Artist, Photobrush | Korean Photographer & Videographer
In the modern photography scene, there is an artist who embodies a unique vision and deep emotional sensitivity. That artist is Photobrush , a photographer and videographer based in South Korea.
Born on 1991, Photobrush spent his childhood abroad before returning to South Korea for military service. Growing up in diverse cultures naturally broke down preconceived notions and allowed him to view the world from fresh perspectives. This experience is reflected in his work, where he creates images that are not just records but expressions of emotion.
His artistic style draws inspiration from Gregory Crewdson’s cinematic storytelling, Cindy Sherman’s identity exploration, and Henri Cartier-Bresson’s decisive moments, blending contemporary aesthetics with surrealistic elements.
Currently, he is an active member of SOSO Photo, one of South Korea’s most prestigious photography groups. Simultaneously, as a freelance photographer for corporate clients, he works on commercial photography, guide videos, product photography, architectural shots, food photography, and landscapes, continuously expanding his creative reach.
📷 Photobrush : Documenting the World Beyond the Camera
There is a striking characteristic in Photobrush ’s work: when he captures his own presence in photographs, his head is missing.
This is not a mere stylistic choice but a visual representation of his philosophy: “Overthinking complicates life, but seeing with the heart makes things simpler.” Through his work, he leaves space for interpretation, allowing viewers to wonder, “What expression was he making?” or “What emotions was he feeling at that moment?”
Using a Sony camera, he explores a diverse range of genres, from portrait photography to landscapes.
Influenced by Edward Hopper’s interplay of light and shadow, Steve McCurry’s vibrant color palette, Andreas Gursky’s structural compositions, and Franco Fontana’s bold minimalism and vivid hues, his work creates a strong visual impression that balances emotion and precision.
Capturing light that is both heavy and weightless.
Creating photographs that resemble paintings.
These are the core elements of Photobrush ’s work.

Having experienced life through various lenses from an early age, he refuses to let his vision be constrained, making his photography and videography his greatest strengths.
His photographs are more than simple documentation.
