Mom cried
"Umma, Umma, Umma" again and again.
January 2011
"Umma", Korean for "Mom," is a series of photographs witnessing a dramatic family event, my grandmother's passing. Grandma had had a stroke. She was in a coma for three weeks, and at the end of the third week, she died. She is my mother's mother, and during the funeral, its anticipation, preparation and aftermath, I was particularly aware of my mother's grief and the circle of life.
