Soyung Lee is interested in the ways in which a regional culture and its way of living relate to individuals’ history, internal conflicts, and sensibilities. Since 2011, she has worked on a research-based project titled THE FUTURE IS COMING FROM ALL DIRECTIONS, a Eurasia Korean Diaspora project. Through this work, the artist attempts to explore the issues of immigration, settlement, and residence in the daily dilemmas that individuals experience. Her solo exhibitions Doubtful Nest (BOAN1942, Seoul, 2015) and Displaced (Videotage, Hong Kong, 2016) have dealt with this subject.
