Details:
① Artwork:
Blue Hares
Often using animals as proxies for the human form, Mickey Lee paints unlikely case studies of interpersonal connections. She combines surreal compositions with a slightly off-kilter palette to create tense narratives, as with this image of two rabbits huddled closely together.
For Mickey Lee, the act of painting is a place to conceal herself in a temporary shelter. The artist is driven by a longing to feel at home, and her work explores themes such as fertility, motherhood, lust, desire, and melancholy. Her imagery evokes a state of blossoming life, often in the shape of pregnant women in nature guided by animals.
