Enjoying her status as one of South Korea's most prominent contemporary artists, Lee Bul presents a new series of works at PKM Trinity Gallery in Seoul. Evoking the country's cultural, political, and architectural environment, Lee employs two-way mirrors and fluorescent lights to extend painted polyurethane into seemingly endless depths. Also included are several well-received mother-of-pearl paintings that frequently refer back to South Korea's political climate; a series of carefully crafted ceiling sculptures in hand-cut polyurethane; and the large-scale installation Heaven and Earth, which was shown at Fondation Cartier in Paris last year. Complex and sensuous, Lee's new works manifest her genius for uniting aesthetic and conceptual strength.
