Element Lee enters the Curated Program with two new works that expand their drawing network into the field of cave aesthetics, unfolding enclosed spaces as sites of perception and uncertainty.
Corridor Washroom – Digital work, 2025
A fragment of the cave aesthetics series, this piece compresses the corridor as both shelter and confinement, where gesture becomes signal within a confined visual field.
Corridor r – Digital work, 2025
This edition expands the drawing network into negative architecture, translating basements and data centers into spaces of memory coded on digital surfaces.
Lee’s practice unfolds through mobile phones, where drawing operates as a system of expansion and interconnection.
Each work functions as a node—autonomous yet embedded—within a larger field of time, space, and psyche.
In this release, the cave surfaces as a structural archetype: an environment oscillating between shelter and confinement, intimacy and isolation.
The drawings translate corridors and basements into visual thresholds, diagrams of memory and perception that shift continuously within the networked screen.
Element Lee is a digital artist based in Vienna. Their trajectory centers on autonomous aesthetics and research-driven methodologies, generating work that circulates across interconnected themes and contexts.
Each drawing is both independent and relational, cultivating a field where image-making extends beyond screen and surface, unfolding as a living network of connections.
