minjue (b.1997, KR) is a photographic artist currently based in Amsterdam. Her work centres on individuals within communities and draws on the quiet ironies found in the everyday reflections of the world and society we inhabit. She constructs virtual narratives rooted in historical facts, consistently raising questions about what makes a society feel safe and stable.

Her practice is driven by close observation of communities and the individuals within them, grounded in a belief in each person’s ability to shape their surroundings. Through photography, she explores both the structures and the fringes of society by examining historical narratives and the relationships individuals form within their communities. Her work aims not only to produce visual outcomes but also to use the creative process as a means of questioning and reflecting on the contradictions and complexities of contemporary life.

She holds an AD in Photographic Art from Kaywon University of Art and Design (KR) and a BA in Photography from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie (NL).
