Lee ShinJa: Drawing with Thread

Breaking with dominant idioms and traditions of craft, Lee integrated dyeing, knotting, weaving, and embroidery techniques to make increasingly large-scale sculptural forms at the intersections of art and craft, found and made objects, and figuration and abstraction. The works in this exhibition—the majority of which will be on view outside Korea for the first time—showcase the visionary output of an artist who has for decades forged new paths for understanding the artistic possibilities of fiber.
