Jiyong Lee

Invisible Microcosm

Jul 6 - Jul 29 | Opening Reception: Thursday, July 6, 5–8 PM
Jiyong Lee | GREEN DIATOM SEGMENTATION | 33753

Traver Gallery is pleased to welcome Jiyong Lee for his first solo show at the gallery titled Invisible Microcosm. Jiyong Lee’s segmentation series draws inspiration from his fascination with microcosms and the scientific study of cells. Intrigued by the process of cellular division and the journey of growth that begins with a single cell and culminates in the creation of life, Lee explores these themes in his artwork. Working primarily with glass, Lee utilizes its diverse qualities of transparency, translucency, and opacity to symbolize the known and unknown aspects of life science.
