Artwork Description

This work is created based on my dream. I was butterfly and found a flower. It looked so lonely that I wanted to give a hug.

it is large scale of embroidery work. It looks a normal painting from distance but you can see it is stitched when closer.

I draw a moment captured in my mind in stitch from. I believe that every stitches spread across the screen holds my craftsmanship. You will feel the repetitive gesture of stitches are echoing the time.

Artist Bio

Inyoung Lee was born in South Korea. Studied living design and graduated Kaywon Art & Design University in South Korea. He started learning embroidery art since he met textile design professor Soojin Cha in the university. She is a famous textile artist who has participated in Venice Bienalle as a Korean Artist. Inyoung has learned and been trained embroidery arts from her. When Inyoung finished his military service, he decided to move to Australia in early 2020. May be it was bad decision as pandemic happened right away. To survive during pandemic Inyoung moved around Australia struggling to stay on.
