Description: This mid-career survey of the work of acclaimed South Korean artist Lee Bul explores the artist's extensive investigation into the body and its relationship to architectural space. Over a 30-year career that spans South Korea's transition from military dictatorship to democracy, Lee Bul has explored questions of intimacy, gender, technology and class through a focus on the body. Drawing on science fiction, bioengineering and visionary architecture, as well as Japanese anime and manga, her work includes performance, drawing, painting and large-scale immersive installations.
