Tim Lee
London
Lee (1983) has developed a unique approach to Asian Ink painting, one which is informed by traditional methods yet attempts to transcend its philosophical, cultural, and historical ties.
His work addresses the tensions that arise from the intersection between the spiritual, secular, and religious perspectives to meaning-making in painting.
How do we repurpose or disavow the tools inherited from our history to live in harmony with an ever-changing scientific and secular age?
Lee graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting from Leeds University and currently undertaking his Masters of Fine Arts at Goldsmiths University London. Tim also alumni of the Florence Trust residency.
