``Wind'' is a collection of works by Jeongjin Lee, a Korean-born female photographer currently based in New York. Born in South Korea in 1961, he studied calligraphy as a child and majored in ceramics at university in South Korea. After graduating, he worked as a photojournalist. He then moved to New York, where he worked for a year on a project to record the lives of elderly people who made a living by hunting ginseng, and earned a master's degree in photography from New York University. He once worked for Robert Frank, a master of photography in the 20th century, and was fascinated by the vast "deserts" he visited while living in the United States, and released his desert series in the 1990s. His prints that draw on his Korean roots and deep monochrome landscapes reminiscent of calligraphy and ink paintings are now receiving high acclaim around the world. This work is a unique collection of landscapes that depicts the influence of the intangible thing called ``wind'' on tangible things and the landscape from both natural and artificial perspectives.
