Jungjin LEE is a Korean artist who has lived in the US since 1988. She studied photography at New York University and was an assistant to Robert Frank.
She initially photographed documentary, but in the 90s turned to a formal search in which the photographic material is treated with the plasticity of drawing by treating the image supports with light-sensitive liquid. This formal search is sustained by a sensibility that completely engages her and represents a truly existential challenge.
She is attracted to desert places, rocks and water landscapes. Her photography is the capture of a mental landscape. For Jungjin Lee, photography is an inner adventure, a meditation.
Her works are represented in numerous collections and museums such as the Metropolitan Museum New York, Whitney Museum, New York, Seoul Museum of Art, Seoul etc.
