bio
Re Jin Lee is a sculptor working primarily with clay through an intuitive, additive process. Forms develop without predetermined outcomes, shaped by repetition, interruption, and hindsight rather than narrative intent. Growing up in São Paulo, where modernist architecture exists alongside Portuguese colonial structures, established an early sensitivity to mass, proportion, and spatial tension. This formal language is further shaped by a South Korean household marked by restraint and material discipline. The resulting works sit between structure and instinct, carrying traces of place and memory without direct representation.
