Mickey Lee
For Mickey Lee, the act of painting acts as a place where she can conceal herself, with work functioning as a temporary shelter. The artist is driven by a longing to feel at home, and her work explores fertility, motherhood, lust, desire and an on-going battle with melancholy. Lee’s paintings evoke a place where life blossoms, oftentimes in the shape of a pregnant woman flanked by animals that act as guides into motherhood.
