Panic Room |
Panic Room is connected to some of the artists' earliest memories and dreams and coveys the way she saw the world as a child, with swirling patterns, objects flying off in all directions in an absurd dizziness.
|
Broken Heart |
Broken Heart is a visual representation of a famous Korean saying: “like breaking a stone with an egg” – meaning making an ineffectual effort against insurmountable challenges.
|
I’ll Be Back |
This piece is based upon a Korean fable in which a tiger chases desperate children into a well. A god lowered a rope from the sky by which the child escaped, but when the tiger cried out for help, a rotten rope was lowered, condemning the tiger to a miserable fate. Lee used painted fans for this meticulous arrangement.
