Jung Lee / Christophe Guye Galerie
by Chinnie Ding
"In Jung Lee’s first solo exhibition outside Asia, the South Korean artist reveals the acheiropoetic power of the simple neon phrases she installs and photographs in desolate landscapes. Among the ten large-scale C-prints on view, the eponymous message of Promise Me, 2018, irradiates wiry brambles with its turquoise glow, while the hot-pink letters in I Love You with All My Heart #2, 2020, stand out against a blanket of undisturbed, ultraviolet-tinged snow.” — Chinnie Ding
