Artwork Description

Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

Native to New Zealand, Paua shells are beautiful and are sometimes known as Sea Opals. This painting is inspired by this natural beauty. The 'Nature Series' abstract paintings are an interpretation of the relationship between the human being and nature through process, materials, colours and shapes. By observing people and nature, Sung notices shapes made by light and darkness where she visualises organic lines and forms. She likes to push the boundaries of beauty and creativity as reflected in nature because it displays perfect harmony of colours and shapes. Sung interprets nature through gestural lines and flow of colour in a more abstract manner by the placement of fragmented organic shapes.

All her works are made with high quality pigments and paints. This work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Artist Bio

Sung Lee is a Sydney, Australia based contemporary painter, sculptor and mixed media artist. She has studied art most of her life and has graduated from the University of Sydney (Visual Arts). Initially, she began painting portraiture to establish her cultural identity. From there her work gradually developed to more abstract forms. She has expanded her artistic focus to the observation and appreciation of the natural world. As she travelled extensively, she became more aware of her surroundings and began to love nature and notice intricate details, which she translates into her art practice.

Sung has been awarded several times and was the recipient of a Merit Award in the Moreton Bay Art Prize, Brisbane Australia. She has exhibited her artwork in several group exhibitions including the “Fifth Perspective” in Fortitude Valley. She has also showcased her solo exhibition “Lost Identity” in Brisbane.

Sung's various original artworks and limited edition prints have been purchased for display in homes and offices throughout Australia, America and Europe. Her artwork has also been collected by several public sectors such as the Brisbane North Institute of Technical and Further Education and the Brisbane and Southbank Institutes of Technology.
