Welcome, Young Joo Lee!

We're excited to announce Young Joo Lee, a multimedia artist originally from South Korea, as a new Assistant Professor in our Theatre Performance area. With work exhibited in national and international institutions and film/video festivals, Lee holds an MFA in Sculpture at Yale University (2017) and an MFA in Film at the Academy of Fine Arts St?delschule Frankfurt (2013). Most recently, she was a Visiting Lecturer in Animation and Immersive Media Art at the Department of Art, Film and Visual Studies at Harvard University. She was also a College Fellow in Media Practice at Harvard University (2018-20), a Fulbright Scholar in Film & Digital Media (2015-18), and a recipient of a DAAD artist scholarship (2010-12). Here's an artist statement from her :

My work investigates the concept of ※the other§ and ※the otherness§ found in history, mythology, mass media, as well as in my own experiences of living across three different cultures: South Korea, Germany, and the USA. I utilize animation, performance, drawing, sculpture, and digital media to make tangible experiences of these investigations. Having grown up in a divided country, South Korea, the notion of ※the other§ is bound to the history of the Cold War and colonialism. The experience of being ※the other§ living in foreign countries taught me about racial discrimination, the societal structure, and the ideology that affects perceptions of another body. The experience of being a woman and an artist made me more aware of the stories of ※the other§ that are often unheard and forgotten.

Based on research and first-hand experiences, my work interweaves personal experiences with the collective narrative of history, mythology, and mass media, to create fictional worlds that show, distort, and challenge the relationships between them. These magical realist worlds explore the issues of cultural colonialism, alienation, and assimilation processes resulting from immigration and discrimination based on sex, gender, and economic status. Thus, my work ultimately brings the audience closer to these issues through the sensorial and intellectual engagement of the stories.
