Introduction
In Lee Su-Jen’s “Welcoming,” there is a distinct manifestation that merges Eastern and Western aesthetic sensibilities. Created in 2004 using oil paints, the piece vividly captures the artist’s profound grasp of internal emotions and cultural symbology. The artwork features fluid, compelling lines with a color scheme that reflects the influence of Oriental minimalism, yet maintains the emotive intensity of Western Expressionism. Through "Welcoming," Lee not only displays the visible scene but also delves deep into an exploration and articulation of the beauty of human nature.
