“Making My Way to the Shore” by Photographer Jenny Kim

In this series by Los Angeles-based photographer Jenny Kim, she examines her experience as a woman, without children, at the end of her fertile years. She says, “As my dream of motherhood turned into a reality of infertility, anxiety and pressure mounted every month that I aged and was unable to conceive. If I remain childless, I wonder if the void of missing out on the intricate experience of being a mother can somehow be tempered. Through a mix of landscapes, archival family photos, and my present day life, I am exploring my psychological landscape, place within my family, aging and time.”
