 Steven
Young Lee, Resident Artist Director
Steven Young Lee received his MFA in Ceramics from the New York State
College of Ceramics at Alfred University in 2004. In 2004-5, he lectured
and taught at numerous universities throughout China. While there, Lee
created a new body of work as part of a one-year cultural and educational
exchange fellowship in Jingdezhen, Jianxi Province. He has taught at
Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan, the Clay Art Center in New
York and the Lill Street Studio in Chicago, and Emily Carr Institute
of Art and Design in Vancouver, B.C. Lee is currently the Resident Artist
Director of the Archie Bray Foundation.
"My current work examines the process
of recognition-how individuals draw realities based on
experiences and environment. Through functional pottery
and sculpture, I challenge pre-conceptions of style, form,
symbolism, superstitions and identity."
