Doowon Lee b. 1982
There is no right answer to painting; therefore, I do not use pencil and eraser. I do not draw a rough sketch to trace over. In both nature and my experiences, I sense and gather energy from materials as abundant as stars, and this energy activates my theater of drawing. When images go through my theater as if in a movie, I express them, like in a poem, with intuition, concentration and fun by using materials besides canvas or paper such as wool, cashmere, hemp, nettle, carpet, linen, etc I may change the size of the piece, distort the composition, use mathematical color sense, give a poetic title and write my signature Doowon, which is my favorite and the last stage, time and again. In this day and age where there are so many art theorists or art-scientists, I am just an unbridled painter who draws and draws.
