The Art of Seeing Obscurity
TLC vol.3

TLC(Think Like Clouds) is a magazine that reveals the invisible process of creating art. Vol. 3 The Art of Seeing Obscurity consists of works by artists featured in the exhibition at D’Ark Room, held from July 31 to December 31, 2026.

Jihyun Kim, Jinsil Lee, and Soojung Choi each explore sensations, memories, and the ambiguous landscapes of the human mind that resist easy definition or explanation. Each, in a distinct way, captures landscapes of absence, layers of time, and the traces left behind by life. Rather than seeking to represent reality with clarity, they pursue fleeting moments, elusive sensations, and experiences that cannot be fully articulated through language. In embracing incompleteness and hesitation, their photographs reveal that photography can still speak in the language of poetry and art.

The photographs encountered in this book are less representations than traces of existence, marked by ambiguity and spaces of incompleteness. Photography becomes a medium that bridges what is visible and the unseen mind, rendering existence not as a definitive answer but as an unfinished poem. Carrying within it a world that remains forever beyond our reach, photography becomes a beautiful trace of mourning for every moment that disappears.

This book was published with the support of 2026 ARKO Partners Visual Art.
