Artist

LEE Jungwoo

LEE Jungwoo majored in stage design in undergrad, worked as a pre-production designer from 2004 to 2009, and moved to Germany in 2010 where the artist received his diploma in video art and Meisterschuler. The artist focuses on what is hard to understand with ordinary thinking and the ironic phenomenon that still enables us to function and exist in reality. In other words, he inquires into the "relationship of function and malfunction" of a system that is incompatible and recomposes them using the medium of video.
