Visual Arts
Residency 14.1. – 14.4. 2022
Eunsook Lee has a master’s degree in Fine Arts from the Hongik University and a BFA in Fine Arts from Ewha Womans University in Korea. Her artwork began with textile arts yet has expanded to installations, mainly incorporating diverse media such as fiber, polyester, and blacklight. Lee's work is a process of interpreting her world in her own terms by creating order from disorder. Her works conjure up a fantasy by adding the fluorescent material to the main subject of fabric such as cotton thread. Her works have been exhibited in numerous public projects and exhibitions including Schnoor Street (Bremen), Harbor City (Hong Kong), Museum of Modern Art (Seoul), Festival of Light (Berlin), Workhouse Museum (Virginia), and Art Mora (NewYork). Lee has won many recognitions including the First Place in the 2015 Contemporary Visual Art Competition by the AHL Foundation, and Innovative Use of Materials at Fiberarts International '97 in Pittsburg, PA.
