One of the most prominent contemporary artists in Hong Kong, Lee explores the topics of time, memories and human relationships. As a member of the Golden Key International Honor Society and a founding member of the MIA (Mere Independent Artist), Lee is an artist that can evoke strong visual sensations in her viewers through her play with shape, juxtaposition, color, rhythm and intensity. Through a technique called time painting, Lee creates pieces that are elegant, thought provoking and truly reflective of the passing of time.
