Photographs by Min Byung-Hun.

Datz Press, Seoul, South Korea, 2025. 12x16".

“A determination of intent comes from knowing where to rest.
From determination comes tranquility.
From tranquility comes ease.
From ease comes deliberation.
From deliberation comes attainment.” — The Great Learning

Sansookyung (山水景) means “a landscape of mountains and water touched by light.” These images find beauty in the ordinary. Min transforms ordinary subjects into poetic black-and-white prints, captivating viewers with a magical allure. Rarely do we see a Korean photographer who, through a Western medium, reveals a path to the Eastern jingyeong—a true-view landscape. The deep gray tones between light and shadow evoke traditional East Asian ink paintings, resembling a visual poem. Following the flow of light as it interacts with white space, this photobook is a hand-bound edition, limited to 500 copies.
