About the artwork

Lee Jae Hyo creates works with relation to nature. In his large-scale installations, he freights in the power of nature, the magnificence and grandeur of it. By mashing abstract wood forms together, Lee explains human interaction with the natural world, how alteration from human actions brings changes and consequences. With a sense of design, each piece is assembled to collectively build a form, one that reminiscent of a subject we are familiar with, evoking our subconscious to draw parallels to the built world. He presents wood in a natural form, preserving the essence of it material. Lee believes that the inner nature of wood possesses humble qualities that are able to disclose emotions.
