Photo Essay: Monochrome Nature – In and around Gwangju

Photos by Abhishek Sahu

About the photographer:

Abhishek Sahu came to Korea one year ago to work as a postdoctoral researcher at the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST). Since then, he has been living in this city and taking pictures in his free time. Sahu started photography two years ago when he went to Portugal, which was his first time outside his home country of India. Slowly, it has become his favorite pastime. He doesn’t have any formal training in photography, but tries to learn from the resources available over the internet and by practicing more. Sahu is highly passionate about the black and white landscape photographs of Michael Kenna. Kenna’s work is Sahu’s inspiration and motivation.
