She explores how we can navigate life in a chaotic world, unveiling societal realities through a critical yet sometimes hopeful lens. She employs a variety of mediums, including installation, performance, sculpture, and video, with a strong focus on fostering interaction with the audience. By encouraging active viewer participation and dialogue, Lee seeks to go beyond traditional exhibition formats. She is also interested in expanding the exhibition space into digital platforms such as SNS. Currently, she is organizing an art talk show featuring artists based in Leipzig and Berlin, further developing her exploration of innovative audience engagement.
Her work explores the compromises between the artist's thoughts, influenced by media and society, and her reality. Society forces choices upon individuals, inevitably leading to compromise, which is often dictated by power dynamics. The nature and consequences of compromise are always fluid.
The artist, often referred to as an "anime kid," grew up watching cartoons from a young age and was deeply influenced by them. Within the gap between the world of anime—where justice always prevails and everything unfolds as it should—and the contradictions of reality, the artist explores the paradoxes and inconsistencies of the real world.

This work investigates power structures between nations within capitalism through the lens of currency exchange rates. Unlike the fluctuating value of labor within a single country, in a globalized world, identical human labor is translated into different national currencies, and its worth varies according to exchange rates. The economic scale of a nation defines the value of human labor, and further, stratifies both national and individual power and worth. This work seeks to connect Korean and German viewers through simultaneous displays, aiming to explore these disparities in labor value and power across borders.
