KAKYOUNG LEE
Kakyoung Lee (b. 1975, Daegu, Korea) received her BFA/MFA in Printmaking from Hong-Ik University, Seoul and MFA from SUNY Purchase College, NY. Through her identifiable style, she deconstructs and reconstructs hundreds of sequences in a fresh configuration by utilizing a time intensive process of hundreds of prints and hand drawings. These figurative or abstract moving lines and silhouettes of everyday-ness allude to her search for identity in the different geographic and cultural milieus through which she has passed. Lee has exhibited her work at various leading institutions including MASS MOCA, Museum of Modern Art, New York, Seoul Arts Center, Korea, and Oqbo, Berlin.
