Study for Iron Presse
steel and wood, 2011


Lee's sculpture is process-driven; the concepts that propel her work are expressed less in the finished object than in the making. This piece, as with the others in the Iron Presse series, is the result of Lee driving wood wedges between steel plates, a representation of overcoming repression. Jin Lee is expected to finish her MFA in sculpture at the Academy of Arts University this spring. She lives and works in San Francisco.
