« My work is about encountering every moment as it presents itself to me and materializing that singular moment’s difference in a sculptural form. The form then exudes its own intense difference, coming alive on its own and beckoning the viewer to join in on the moment of eternity. »
Won Lee is an acclaimed Canadian sculptor and painter whose work has featured in prestigious prizes, exhibitions and collections internationally. Through art, he hopes to view the world and objects found within it from a perspective that is free from preconceived concepts. For Lee, this allows for every moment to be authentically realized and experienced. His sculptures primarily explore the human form and ideas about past, present and future.
