Seyoung: REMOVING 'ILLEGITIMATE' CHILDREN 1980S-PRESENT

My first focus stayed on the rectangular box that says “baby box” -> then the above orange box and its contents-> Finally, my gaze ended up at the two banners on the right pictures. While my eyes moved around these images, I tried to digest how these visualizations captured the toxicity of Shannon’s theme. The images capture a way of contemporary Korean society dealing with illegitimate children, who are with disabilities or unwanted, through religious organizations and adoption agencies.
