The exhibition Form of Living, under the concept of “furniture made by an artist,” presents furniture as both functional form and sculpture experienced in everyday life, extending LEE Jeongbae’s long cultivated sculptural sensibility into the realm of daily living. His furniture embodies a condition in which function and form are inseparable, allowing utility and beauty to coexist, and is ultimately completed through use by the body and the accumulation of time.
What the artist describes as “beauty through use” suggests that furniture, beyond serving as a simple tool, becomes a sculptural medium that shapes space and perception. Through this perspective, the exhibition considers furniture as a structure that reveals the framework of living itself. Ultimately, Form of Living explores how art can operate within everyday life through furniture, proposing an experience in which the beauty of utility crosses the boundary between art and daily life, and living itself becomes an extension of aesthetic practice.
