Doowon Lee

...

Doowon Lee works with the inspiration and materials he finds in nature, and transmits the experiences and emotions he feels during his travels around the world. He works in tune with his unique vision of the universe, in which nature, animals, and humans are one. He continues to travel relentlessly, despite suffering from a panic disorder, because of his longing for new, strange locations, and novel working materials. He is constantly researching these new materials because, for him, the canvas is a dead and overly processed background. He looks for less-processed natural materials in countries like Pakistan, Nepal, and India, and constantly researches novel materials.
