In Suyeon Yun’s Garbage Bag, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the viewer’s attention is first drawn to the ordinary trash bag slumped on the sidewalk at the lower right corner of the print. From that point, the large-scale photograph invites a closer look at the other details, from the vivid basket of flowers to the row of brightly colored storefronts receding into the distance. At the top of the image, a banner commemorates a local U.S. Army sergeant who died overseas, introducing an unexpected connection between two distant places: Pennsylvania and Iraq. This photograph is part of Yun’s Homecoming series, which focuses on the psychological aftereffects of war that some soldiers experience upon returning home, where even a garbage bag could seem threatening, animate, or mournful.
