Hee-myoung Lee created in 2021
60 cm
72 cm
The artist Lee Hee-myoung has been exploring a multifaceted perspective on the inner self using painting and installation works, with a focus on femininity and nature since her plant installation piece in 2006. She graduated from the Department of Painting and the Graduate School of Painting at Hongik University. She has held a total of 11 solo exhibitions, including one at the Zaha Museum of Art in 2019. Additionally, she has participated in around 50 group exhibitions, such as those at the Seoul Museum of Art (2007), Sungkok Museum of Art (2008), Soma Museum of Art (2018), and Zaha Museum of Art (2023). She endeavors to establish an internal connection seeking harmony between nature and the female body through diverse expressive techniques. Departing from a vertical mindset that seeks to dominate nature as a primitive world, Lee Hee-myoung advocates for a horizontal world that aligns femininity and nature. Through contemplation of nature and inner self, she creates reassembled works based on the combination of plants and the body, addressing the corporeality of nature and femininity. She also implements fairy-tale-like imagination and mythical symbolism across various spectrums, the positivity of aesthetic embrace and the unsettling shadow of the unknown are captured in her work.
