Power, sacrifice, and survival are the underlying themes that connect Bovey Lee's art. These three motivations drive the tensions in her work, exploring the struggle between nature, rampant urbanization, and the ownership of natural resources.
Lee is a cut paper artist based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Born in Hong Kong and practicing Chinese calligraphy since the age of ten, she studied painting and drawing in her formative years and completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
