This body of work is a 9 part series of photographs called “Deconstruction Construction”. In this series of photographs, I was documenting an illegal eviction of a lower-income neighborhood in Seoul, South Korea. I wanted to capture the transition from small traditional home dwellings to Soviet-Style cookie-cut multi-story high-rises. I wanted to show that these families were forced out of their homes in the middle of the night. In the photographs, you can see a cross-section of their home and by doing so you can see what they could bring with them and what they had to leave behind.

Ryan McLay born in 1977 in Leduc, Canada is currently based in Santiago, Chile. For his art practice, he is primarily a photographer, but he also explores other art mediums such as digital media, video, and sculpture. Ryan McLay received his formal training focusing on sculpture from the Alberta University of Arts (formerly Alberta College of Art & Design) in 2002 which he received his "Bachelor's of Fine Arts". With no formal training in photography, he was exposed to many photographers while studying. Photographers that greatly impacted how he sees the world are fellow Canadians such as Edward Burtynsky, Fred Herzog, and Jeff Wall. Looking outside Canada he admired such photographers as Andreas Gursky, David Hockney, Cindy Sherman, and Magnum group. This in turn shaped his photography practice by focusing on themes such as urban decay, postmodernism, and industrial featurelessness as his backdrop. From 2007 to the present he has lived outside of Canada. His life abroad started with South Korea, followed by Australia, Kuwait, Costa Rica, Qatar, and now his current location Chile. Ryan McLay has exhibited both in Canada and abroad. In group shows he have exhibited at “La Casa Cultural Heredia Alfredo Gonzales Flores, in Heredia, Costa Rica. “FADA Los Angeles Art Show 2010”, in the USA, and “Peace Project” at Bupyeoung History Museum, in Bupyeoung, South Korea. He also exhibited a solo show in Seoul, South Korea.
