BIOGRAPHY
Timothy Hyunsoo Lee (b. 1990) is an artist born in Seoul, South Korea but living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Educated at Wesleyan University (Middletown, CT, USA) with a degree in neuroscience, drawing and developmental biology, his works are informed by his history of immigration, identity conflicts, and the anxiety that developed in him as a result. Using his personal narrative as a vector for exploring more universal concerns about creation and destruction, order and disorder, and of trauma and healing, he works in a variety of media but with a particular focus on watercolors and works on paper. Timothy was the 2014 recipient of the VSA Emerging Young Artist Award given by the Kennedy Center (Washington DC, USA), as well as the International Emerging Artist Award in Dubai. He has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in venues such as the Smithsonian Institution and the Wallach Gallery of Columbia University, as well as at Casablanca, Dubai, Singapore, Madrid, Istanbul and India. He is currently represented by Sabrina Amrani Gallery in Madrid, Spain.
