Reflecting her long-standing interest in the ellipse as a generative form, Kyung-Lim Lee’s latest drawings explore the meditative power of geometric abstraction to manifest mysterious and inviting evocations of the four seasons. Utilizing ellipse-shaped canvases as an alternative to the perceived confines of a rectangular support, Lee’s drawings become portals to a cosmic refuge where time thickens, space expands, and the bright light of reality begins to soften and glow. Emphasizing drawing-as-object, Lee’s works physically manifest forms that are deeply rooted in her visual lexicon.
