The explosive growth in photography book publishing has presented photo-eye with an interesting challenge along with what we think is an exciting opportunity.
How can we continue to offer an ever-increasing inventory of photography books, keep those books continuously in stock and compete with the online deep discounters on price and shipping? The answer is that we can shift much our fullfillment to the web's most efficient book operation, Amazon.com.
Now we are happy to offer you Amazon's discounts on books which are almost always in stock from either Amazon directly or Amazon Marketplace. We can also provide you with the same shipping options that Amazon provides, including on qualified orders, free shipping.
It's important to understand that you will still be supporting photo-eye if you order from Amazon or Amazon Marketplace through photoeye.com. We make it easy for you to do this by providing a dual shopping cart system with separate checkouts.
However, you may still opt to purchase a particular title from photo-eye directly even though the same book is available through Amazon at a less expensive price.
Book publishing is not a perfect industry. Though all books are imperfect in some subtle way, we want to be as accurate as possible on our website if we know that there is a problem with a particular book. Imperfections range from a rubbed dustjacket, a small tear in the dustjacket, or a corner of the book being bumped. No fundamental flaw should be part of an imperfect book's condition. E-mail us our call 505.988.5152 should you have questions prior to ordering a particular imperfect book.
Place your order now and we'll send you the item when it arrives.
You will not be charged until your order ships.
An additional change will be added to the standard handling charge for this item as it is a foreign publication and shipping expenses from foreign countries is extremely expensive or it requires a larger, more expensive box or it requires extra care in handling. Thank you for understanding!
“This book contains scenes from the past ten years, both from my internal and external world. As ascending spiral staircase, the views are never the same yet retain a certain repetitiveness. Descending from my pillar as a photographer and transitioning between various roles, I experienced new perspectives unfolding for things that were once familiar. There are diverse ways of being and one's life reveals a unique story. When an important value breaks, a new possibility is born. I believe the process is the means to discover and create by oneself.” — Sangyon Joo
For Sangyon Joo, photography is a tool for the thought process of looking and recognizing. External objects become an internal landscape reflecting the artist's senses and thoughts, and they are restructured according to her cognitive flow and associations. Through observing nature such as as land, sky, lakes, and trees, Joo practices various perspectives to reconnect with herself as a part of nature. The artist, having gained a new perspective on the act of seeing through an incident that nearly resulted in losing her eyesight, connects the blood vessels in her x-ray photos to tree branches or jusxtaposes them with other objects, thus intertwining the inner and outer landscapes. The specific places and subjects collected over the past decade encounter each other in memory, becoming abstract in the lights. Through the process of selecting, reconstructing, and editing the captured photos, this book stands as the result of another method of creating.
The accompanied text book, which tells an autobiographical story of thinking while looking at a tree, reflects the Joo’s sincere beliefs and attitude towards life and the medium of photography. This photobook contains 180 images structured to flow as a whole, and also holds the artist’s note edited in Korean and English.
Out-of-stock books are available to backorder from photo-eye.
