Should each of the paintings be seen as an invitation to the memory spaces that are mediated through the ‘Red Scene’; then the doll objects, which LEE debuts in this exhibition may be understood as the physical embodiment of mnemonic routinization. Since becoming a mother herself, LEE began to make dolls as her mother once had, in an effort to gather and extend her collection of materialized memories, piece by piece. Sewing up cotton fillings and overlaying them with watercolor, LEE repeats the process of doll-making in her three-dimensional production.

각 회화 작업이 ‘레드씬’을 매개로 한 기억 공간으로의 초대라면, 이번 전시를 통해 처음 선보이는 인형 오브제는 기억을 일상화하고 몸을 통해 체화한 결과물이라 볼 수 있다. 오랜 기억 속 어머니의 수제 인형을 끊임없이 되짚어 보다가 어느새 작가 본인도 엄마가 된 지점에서 그녀는 그 기억을 오브제화하고 자신의 일상 속에 하나씩 더하게 되었다. 즉, 솜을 넣고 바느질을 해 봉제 인형을 만들고, 그 위에 수채화로 형상을 더하는 작업이 반복되어 일련의 입체 작업들로 귀결된 것이다. 지난 수년간의 작가의 기억과 일상이 뒤섞인 인형 오브제 작업들은 전시장에서는 도자기에 그린 드로잉, 수틀에 그려진 수채화, 그 외 개인적 수집품 등과 함께 기억의 진열장의 형식으로 제시되는데, 이는 지극히 일상적인 대상들이 모인 집합체로서 비단 작가의 사적 기억뿐 아니라 관람객들의 사적 기억 혹은 집단 기억을 반추하게 만드는 도화선으로 확장된다.
