Koryo Hotel Breakfast Buffet, 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. The breakfast room of the Koryo Hotel has the surreal quality of a Wes Anderson film set, with a complementary colour palette of orange and blue providing a backdrop for vases of plastic flowers and plates of kimchi and boiled eggs. Built in 1985, the Koryo Hotel is the premium hotel for foreign visitors, standing as a pair of 45-storey towers joined with a bridge and crowned with a revolving restaurant. With a total of 500 rooms, the hotel also has a bookshop, movie room, banquet and conference rooms, as well as a casino and “wading pool” in the basement.
