The person in the book does, I can go check that out.

Its sad because the curator of the book has been trying to get an exhibit of there work up to give the artists some recongition but it always gets cancelled due to 'human rights concerns' which is absurd because most of these artists they want to represent are simply just either hobbyists or full time artists employed by the state, but either way have been taught by it.

It really speaks for the cultural supression of north korea, the west is actively trying to prevent its subjects from even remotely humanzing there forever war enenmy.

Human rights are a great scam, you can get anything passed under human rights. Nevermind that refusing these artists to get their work exposed further isolates them and helps justify further hostile acts because if you can't get to know them, you can't get to humanize them like you said. It's like sanctions.

But damn I love that forest print.
