Daegu, South Korea, b. 1976
Mona Lee is an artist who uses her paintings to capture memorable experiences and feelings she encounters daily. She has interacted with the public through her work since graduating with an MA in Painting from Central Saint Martins after studying Painting at the Chelsea College of Art in London. Her work usually uses brown colours reminiscent of vintage black-and-white photos, reflecting the artist's themes of nostalgia and recollection. Her soft, lyrical paintings evoke universal memories that are ingrained in all of us and serve as a sensory tool to generate empathy. For example, she believes that her paintings, recalling the jazz and classical music she listened to in the 1990s, would allow busy people to relax while appreciating them.
