Ajin Lee
Ajin Lee has received M.F.A. and M.A. with Design in Seoul and London. She has been working on artworks since her solo exhibition in 2018 to focus on creative expressions. The main topic of her interest is 'a living which doesn't define me and feeling myself as I am'. In order to reach this point, she is exploring how to resist external forces trying to control human beings through fundamental elements of people's lives such as clothing, space, and food. She expresses her inner experience as an individual but looks at the other side of the surroundings regarding the social system and customs. Even though she is a performance artist, she does not define the body. She said, "The body, that is what I am so, I am expressed through my body". For several years, she has worked in Turkey, India, New York, and Spain to create a new worldview getting away from accustomed. Now she lives in nature and is still recomposing herself with artistic practice.
