Seoul – Art Spiel

In Dialogue

Sandra Lee is an artist who produces sculpture and 2-D works, which addresses her interest in labor, materials, and traditions that have been passed in through time and culture and defining those elements through a contemporary lens. Lee had a recent exhibition titled “The Walking Mountain” at Drexel University. I had the pleasure of speaking to Lee about her work, her influences, and what it means to be an American-Korean artist and daughter of immigrant parents. The Walking Mountain exhibition consists of works that signify some of these themes through their materiality and their making. Here is the discussion that transpired.

During the Coronavirus pandemic, Art Spiel is reaching out to artists to learn how they are coping.
