Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This contemporary artwork features a collection of four images depicting the human form. The central composition consists of three smaller images arranged in a square, with an additional image situated above. The dominant colors are muted tones of pink and purple, creating a distinctive, almost ethereal quality. The subject matter centers around the representation of infants or young children, with the figures appearing in various poses and stages of development. The artistic style employs a photographic medium, capturing the subjects in a naturalistic yet subtly manipulated manner. The overall impression suggests a contemplation of themes related to human growth, fragility, and the passage of time. ...

Kang Seung Lee’s practice seeks both to illuminate and to create new critical, cross-cultural queer histories. Born in South Korea but having lived in Latin America and the Middle East, Seung Lee is concerned with excavating material – such as artworks, artefacts and publications, from public and private archives, for example libraries, museums and private collections – that sheds light on non-Western marginalised experiences and suppressed histories. Through the artist’s meticulous process of research, hidden narratives and personal accounts, divergent with hegemonic and linear histories, begin to emerge. Expressing his findings with graphite pencil, paintings on transformed canvases, garments, ceramics, film footage and Polaroid images, Kang Seung Lee sees these alternative, counter-narratives as dictating strategies and tactics for the liberation of marginalised peoples.
