STEVEN YOUNG LEE reinterprets work from the Portland Art Museum’s Korean Collection. The museum notes “…at once fascinated by the excellence of these objects, Lee overturns these pristine examples in his own practice—perfection becomes failure, classical motifs become popular characters, and elegance resides with kitsch. They are objects in navigating Lee’s own experience in Korean-American, cross-cultural identity and upbringing.”
