About
This book is a collection of photographs depicting Korea from the late 1960s to the early 2000s, taken by Joo, Myung Duck. As a photographer born on Korean soil, he observed and photographed its landscapes, households, and people of the land throughout his life. His photographs show us the old ways of living that no longer exist and the roots of these unique traditions that shaped our lives. This project began with a working title of Heonsa[], which carries the meaning of dedicating my photographs to my motherland. After 40 years, the book is presented with its new title My Motherland covering a wider scope of the artists work than its initial sequence.
