A pine grove is a familiar landscape in South Korea and is the central theme in Bae's Sonamu series. In these panoramic images of pine trees, Bae captures the essence of Korean identity and spirit. His works have been shown internationally, including FotoFest 2000 in Houston, and are held in institutional and private collections, including the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Korea, The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, the LeWitt Collection, Chester, CT, and the Sir Elton John Collection, Atlanta/London.
