- Editor's words -

‘SCôP's latest exhibition “Beyond Fashion” includes the works of New York-based Paul Jung; the ultimate in beautifully simple aesthetic style.’

Paul Jung's style is all about simplicity, its color and tone, mood and emotion reduced down to an absolute minimum. You could say that the clarity Jung seeks in his visual language is a clever ruse to describes complex emotional states hidden within. There's a little of that for sure. Mostly, for this New York-based, Taipei-born photographer, it's all about finding balance. 'Without this balance, things can easily fall into the category of boring or unnecessary,' Jung says. 'I have a focus in mind for each piece so work to highlight that by removing all potential distractions. Each element of the photograph has a reason for being there. Careful balance creates intense feelings.'

You can see this everywhere in Jung’s work: in his fascination for silhouettes and hard shadows, or the soft gradients of whites and greys, the stark natural contrast between white and black skin. The visual impact is immediate, clear, and projects powerfully a beautiful melancholy, an intense sadness, as much as a vital life force.

'I have never been interested in traditional "beauties",' Jung explains. 'That's something we see in overwhelming volume across all medias today. What interests me are faces and personalities which convey a certain aesthetic mood.' Jung's style is the clean and poetically simple aesthetic mood that radiates in his photographs.
