Jiyoun Lee

An artist from the earth stays in NY

Name: Jiyoun Lee

In my work anthropomorphic creatures such as trash bags, bombs, and weapons tell stories of vulnerability from my ever-changing perspectives as a woman, dreamer and cultural alien. Using ink and acrylic on paper or canvas, I prefer to paint these images in black and white because this style is more object-focused and contradictory in nature. These are my diaries of darkness. My art not only helps me live with my monsters, but also lets me use them to live.
