Solitude in Seoul: Portraits by Rala Choi

[E]nter a world of bold colour and abstraction with Rala Choi’s images. The South Korean photographer takes a painterly approach to portraiture, balancing vibrant hues with meticulously considered silhouettes.

Focused on young women, each image holds a mysterious narrative. The intimacy of female friendship. The wonder of solitude in a silent room. Rala’s elegant nudes, obscure more than they reveal. Shot entirely on analogue with no post-production, they expose the beauty and potential in private moments.
