Clarine Lee is a Korean artist currently based in Pittsburgh. Her work often features and integrates themes of illegibility, fragmentation, and ephemerality of memory. Her action of taking away—whether by reducing legibility or fragmenting memories—emphasizes the impermanence of everything and the importance of attempt at its partial preservation. Each of her works ventures to create conversations between the tangible and the fleeting, highlighting the fragility and rarity that reside within the things often overlooked or left behind. She primarily works with photography, book design, and textiles.
