SUBMISSION: Cloud City by Jake Lee

ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2017 Submission.

Cloud City by Jake Lee. All Rights Reserved.

South Korean artist, Jake Lee, has stepped into creating his own dreamy dimensions of surrealism through collages. By carefully dissecting magazine images and illustrations, reminiscent of the 1950s, Lee has altered his perception of reality by escaping the rigid formality of our existence.

A manifestation of his own dreams and thoughts, Lee questions the theoretical constructs of life's philosophy by correlating each artwork from his social, political, and environmental experiences.

Appearing to work with opposites (warm and cool, calm and chaos), Lee interrogates the boundary between disarray and harmony, accompanied by vivid forms assisting in the making of dreamlike world, incomprehensible to be seen in reality yet redolent of our own environment.
