Changgwang Health and Recreation Complex, Pyongyang Photograph - Limited Edition of 15

Limited edition of 15. C-type print on Fuji Crystal archival paper with a semi-matt finish. Individually numbered and signed on reverse. Journalist and photographer Oliver Wainwright travelled to North Korea in 2015, gaining a rare glimpse behind closed doors in the most secretive country in the world. His photographs are collected in a new book, Inside North Korea, published by Taschen. This massive complex built along the Pothong River was the city’s flagship health centre when it opened in 1980. Covering an area of almost 40,000 square metres, with capacity for 16,000 people, it contains a sauna, bathhouse, swimming pools and hair salons – where customers can choose from a range of officially sanctioned haircuts. In a futuristic touch, the diving boards are reached by a mechanical elevator in a shaft faced with smoked glass.
