From April 21 to May 2, Doosan Corporation is holding the “You, Me and Us” photo exhibition, showcasing artworks created by students enrolled in the fourth “Time Traveler” program at Ganainsa Art Center in Seoul. The Time Traveler program is the company’s community involvement program designed to promote the healthy growth of young people through education in the humanities.
Under the theme of “You, Me and Us,” the exhibition features about 300 photos and essays created by 90 middle school and high school students, who had captured scenes that resemble themselves or those that they wish to resemble in a variety of places in Seoul, including Sinchon, Daehangno and Myeongdong.
The Time Traveler program was established in 2012 with the aim of helping teenagers who have limitations in developing their emotions due to their surrounding environment. Under the program, students closely observe their surroundings through the medium of photography and listen to the voices of people living in the environment, and thereby have a chance to reflect on themselves and their own surroundings. So far, 366 students have completed the program.
Photographers Bae Bien-U and Jungman Kim, choreographer Eun Me Ahn, Seoul Green Trust President Byoung-e Yang, Professor Dae-hoe Ahn from the Department of Chinese Classics at SungKyunKwan University, and Professor Byeong-joo Shin of the History Department at Konkuk University have taken part in the education program as advisers in a wide range of areas, including photography, history, humanities and the environment.
“Looking at the artworks of the students, I could see the world from the perspective of the young people,” said Wanseok Park, executive vice president of Doosan Corporation. “At a time when it is difficult to find time to contemplate, this program gives us an opportunity to sincerely reflect on ourselves and the world, and we will continue to provide our support for this great program.”
