Lee Bae Brushstroke A4, 2025
The work is from a series giving Lee Bae's painted Brushstrokes a three-dimensional form. Cast in bronze, the sculpture nonetheless captures the fluidity and the texture of his ink-wash paintings.
With his sculptural work, Lee Bae makes manifest the long simultaneity of one-, two- and three-dimensional associations inherent in his painterly practice: His brushwork not only unfolds on a flat, two-dimensional surface, the works also conjure a three-dimensional space through twists and swerves.
