There’s not much we know about this country, and no surprises why – North Korea is one of the most closed-off dictatorships in the world. Photographer Stephan Gladieu travelled there five times to take a series of portraits. Duly authorised to enter this nation of absolute control, accompanied everywhere he went, he recreated a framework for freedom with his mobile photography studio, playing with backgrounds and the codes of propaganda. In front of the camera, the North Koreans look at us, just as we observe them. But what do they see in us and what do we really perceive of them?
