Yeondoojung

There is a Korean photographer named Yeon Doo Jung, that made a series titled 'Wonderland'. In this series, he uses children's art work and create photos based off the drawings. It's quite funny to see the interpretations that are similar to Tableau vivant, the French theatrics that tie theatre to photography. The images below are titled 'Little Red Riding Hood.' There are plenty more on his website. (images courtesy of Yeon Doo Jung).



I'm such a sucker for children's drawings and I really wish I was able to read Korean. The fanciful imaginations and depictions are really terrific and hilarious. How wonderful it would be to think like a child again.
