Kijoo is a Los Angeles based multi-faceted creative specializing in photography, UI design and art direction.
A fashion-designer-turned-UI-designer and photographer, whose work exists at the intersection of form and function, Kijoo believes in aesthetics as a solution to problem-solving. Her design is effective, intuitive, and functional without sacrificing beauty. Her photography is rooted in a passion for travel, endless wanderlust, and escapism.
Kijoo developed a penchant for photography, early on in life after discovering her dad’s film camera and magazine editorial stories—which incidentally drove her to pursue a career in fashion. After 10 years in the industry, and what can only be described as a watershed moment in her personal life, Kijoo decided to deepen her technical and conceptual photography skills by enrolling at Otis College of Art and Design.
In her work, said to have a ‘dreamy quality to it’ by Otis instructors, she captures the beauty of everyday life in different cultures and locations. Her latest project, Desert Gradient, an experiment in which she plays with infrared photography and colors, Kijoo highlights hope, strength, and beauty borne through perseverance in the desert landscape.
