CONNECTICUT---Change is the only constant in life. That philosophy drives the work of Korean-American photographer Atta Kim, both in his cityscapes and his depictions of human interactions. His artist's statement declares "Disappearance is the reality of all existence. Reality is not clear to us; it must be interpreted to be revealed."A new exhibit of long-exposure photographs by Kim at the New Britain Museum of American Art, six photos in all, emphasize this transitory nature of human existence, a key feature in Buddhist philosophy, which Kim studies.

Love landscapes! Be nice to see more of his works!
There is am amazing bit of mystery to his work. It's peaceful but also ghostly. It signals both beauty and death at the same time. It's the cycle of life.
