About Work

Lee Ming-Chung is remarkably skilled in weaving dazzling objects laden with everyday experiences into his works.

 

Having fertile imagination, Lee tends to come up with creative ideas with a sudden flash of genius and transcribe them on the canvas. The elements in the composition resemble odds and ends, yet each is recognizable, and there may even be an occasional touch of humor hidden in the corner. The artist once said that he creates his works like children do, which vividly reflects his understanding of the world.

 

In [Trace of Cat], layers of dark red pigment are deposited on a deep blue background, making one wonder whether they are signs or paths. Above, tiny drops of bright red dots resemble cat paw prints. Are they really the imprints of a cat, or are they merely the shape produced by the collection of microorganisms?
