Cecille R. Hunt Gallery: Friday, 20 February 2009

FI JAE LEE
FEBRUARY 20 ­ MARCH 20, 2009
Opening Reception: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2009, 6pm-8pm
Hours: Monday - Saturday 10am ­ 4pm or by appointment.

The Cecille R. Hunt Gallery presents recent work by South Korean based artist Fi Jae Lee. Lee uses sculpture to give physical incarnation to what she describes as “the unbreakable and fundamental energy, which established and maintains the world -- ­our selfish desires.” Using soft materials, collage, performance and installation, Lee enters a strange realm that references both religion and mysticism. Through stuffed grotesque, surrealistic creatures perched on office furniture and pools of red wine as centerpiece to mad celebration, she actively invites the viewer inside her world of strange ritual and an embodiment of her personal belief systems.
