Minjae Lee: Abstract Artist

Minjae Lee is a highly talented 21-year old, self-taught, South Korean artist.  Lee captivates a raw, theatrical drama using markers, pens, crayons and acrylics to manifest a dark, dramatic fairytale using ethereal female portraits as his subjects. Lee’s art has a mysterious appeal that instantly draws you in and creates a sense if intimacy and sensuality that reaches you at your core.  The human face is his template for his designs and by using abstract movements and textures, bold lines, and vibrant colors, each piece becomes a unique and striking interpretive work of art.  He carefully uses color and shapes to work as the perfect synergy with his black and white outlines and intricate patterns.

Face Me

Her Face

Each piece of art reveals a haunting emotion that is brought to life using his aggressive stroke and use of vibrant colors, which displays his evocative imagery and cleaver juxtaposition of fragile beauty and disturbed insanity, that is guaranteed to leave you wanting more.

I like to capture the woman’s face, because they are so emotional.

My work needs to express a strong feeling. You need to feel the love, pain or excitement. I present those feelings with lots of colors.
