Recent highlights include an acquisition by the Barry Art Museum in Norfolk VA, Chanel in France, Corning Museum of Glass in Corning NY, and Museum of Glass in Tacoma, WA. Lee’s Segmentation Series is inspired by his fascination with cell division. He works with glass that has simultaneous transparency and opacity: two qualities that metaphorically represent the clarity and mysteries of biology.
