HyunSoo Lee, 1981
Hyun-soo Lee reinterprets the characteristics of drawing to establish his own principles of artistic form. Then he enjoys a playful exploration that expands those principles into various forms such as three-dimensional works, installations, performances, collaborations, and more, depending on the given space and time. He thinks art should be a joke, and considers drawing as a visual language - through which he tries to convey his linguistic play.
