Simpson Kim
Kim, who helped shoot “Rising Up” (p. 96), dropped out of college in 2011 to pursue a career in street and fashion photography. The transition brought the South Korean lensman to New York, and since then his work has graced the pages of and among other publications. Kim is fascinated with preserving memories before they vanish. “Through photography, I’m trying to capture fleeting moments that exist neither before nor after and regard it as a testament to my presence at that specific time and place.”
