Seongeun Lee (b.1995)
Textile Artist
Seongeun Lee (b.1995), she is a textile artist who explores fundamental concepts through soft sculptures made of textiles. Her artistic philosophy is to provide viewers with new visual and tactile experiences by visually expressing fundamental, invisible concepts. In particular, she focuses on the core keyword 'Existence' and delves into the existential thoughts and instinctive questions inherent in humans. Humans are internally structured as an arrangement and are a part of the structure that forms a community.
“Arrangement series(2023-24),” she explains human existence through the structural principle of "Arrangement," exploring the way humans are organized. Humans, through this structural principle of arrangement, internally constitute life activities and subjectivity, and are completed as a being by being placed in a certain arrangement by external forces. In this way, she visually presents fundamental existential questions, utilizing the unique materiality of textiles.
