JIN HAN LEE — Peeking

Lee : “My painting practice, to me, is like performing a monologue under the brightest spotlight. When the spotlight turns on, I become blind by it. Gazing somewhere in the pitch-black auditorium, I start my performance. This enables me to release my feelings freely. The invisible, or perhaps imagined, audience is chasing my moving body. They gaze at what I am looking at and imagine what I am feeling. I am conscious they are watching me. The audience becomes conscious that I am conscious of them. Here, my performance is private but shared with the public.”
