The work of Mire Lee fuses volatile substances with traditional sculptural materials and industrial remnants to produce haunting objects and installations. Equally beautiful and grotesque, her sinuous compositions twist into positions that evoke bodies, entrails and skeletal forms and touch upon notions of psychological tension and trauma. Following upon Lee’s major installation at Tate’s Turbine Hall last year, Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present the artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.
