sangheeut presents a solo exhibition 《Pieces of》 by Seounghee Lee, on view through March 29.

Working across painting, sculpture, and installation, Lee explores the relational dynamics between humans and non-humans and the possibilities of coexistence. This exhibition centers on a new series of bronze sculptures inspired by folktales and imagery of dogs across cultures, alongside print works in sculptural frames.

Marking her first foray into bronze, the exhibition not only expands Lee’s sculptural language—previously rooted in digital processes—but also reflects her desire to embed the aspirations and intentions of her creative process into a material with permanence.

Rooted in histories, cultural references, and evolving relationships between humans and animals, Lee’s works are deeply collaborative in nature. Whether exploring the intimate bond between dogs and humans, the intersections of myth and contemporary digital aesthetics, or the broader cultural frameworks that shape our understanding of the non-human world, her practice ultimately seeks to uncover something warm and enduring—even in the midst of uncertainty.

Ji Yeon Lee has been working as an editor for the media art and culture channel AliceOn since 2021 and worked as an exhibition coordinator at samuso (now Space for Contemporary Art) from 2021 to 2023.
