Bibiana Lee

Bibiana Lee practices with a plethora of materials and techniques which are infused by personal observations and experiences and in-depth research.   She creates art that is a reflection of the real world, a product of its context in her perspective, at times giving voices to those who have been silent, to incite a more critical consciousness of what is happening around us.

Minority discrimination, injustice, repression, political, identity, gender, as well as socio-economic and globalization issues are expressed through her 2 as well as 3-dimensional, interactive and video works , often incorporating text or words over an array of media.
