Created in preparation for her commissioned installation at the 2025 Okayama Art Summit: The Parks of Aomame Mire Lee’s Untitled (Okayama shrine collage II) is composed of steel and foraged industrial debris, materials that have become central to her sculptural vocabulary. Scarred with rust, wear, and residue, this memory of labor and decay is embedded within its surface. Lee manipulates these abject remnants into precarious compositions that feel at once intimate and alive.
Known for her charged, immersive installations, Lee explores the tension between mechanical systems and organic forms, violence and tenderness. Her contribution to the Okayama Art Summit is a site-specific sculpture housed within a Buddhist shrine, an architectural space rich with history and ritual. Within this context, her materials take on a heightened sense of transformation: industrial trash becomes divine, delicate, and strangely vulnerable.
