Pneuma
Ilam Jang


“Photography is poetic language. For me, speaking the language of rocks was like translating a ‘poem,’ which changes in meaning even if a single letter is altered. The image-language called photography was the long-forgotten spiritual language of humankind, prior to the Tower of Babel, and at the same time, was merely an indicative language. I have always wished to get closer to that divine language of possibility.” _Ilam Jang

For more than 18 years, Ilam Jang has been photographing Yoseonam, capturing the spiritual ‘pneuma’ of its nature. The photo book ‘Pneuma’ contains the woven poetic language of nature, carefully deciphered by the artist through long contemplation.
