Oil on canvas

4.5" x 4"

Lee is a South Korean millennial whose paintings explore the social pressure to meet expectations, live stably, and avoid failure. She paints the hunched postures of people absorbed in their phones, turning those figures into abstract shapes, she leaves parts of the canvas raw, a deliberate act of shedding that weight. nagilee.art
