Mire Lee (1988, South Korea) is a visual artist known for her raw, organic sculptures and installations. She uses materials such as silicone, steel, motors, and liquids to create moving, almost living structures. Her work evokes associations with the human body, technology, and the fragile boundary between life and death. Lee’s installations are both sensual and unsettling, exploring themes such as desire, vulnerability, and transience.
