Bovey Lee is a Hong Kong born, Pittsburgh-based artist. She works with – and combines – drawing, painting and digital media. Since 2005, her work has focused on paper cutout drawings, extending an ancient Chinese folk art. Lee’s impossibly intricate and highly complex paper cutouts express her views on subjects including power and domination, social hierarchy and politics, and gender and cultural expectations. Her works have been exhibited nationally and internationally, including the Brooklyn Museum of Art, NY; Asian American Arts Center, NY; Kennedy Museum of American Art, Athens, Ohio; University of California at Santa Barbara, CA; Museum of Fine Arts, Beijing, China; Fukuoka Museum of Art, Fukuoka, Japan; and others. Her works are held in the permanent collection of the Hong Kong Museum of Art and in private collections. In 2008, Lee received a fellowship from the PA Council on the Arts. She was also a nominee of the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Award and was honored as a Mid Career Artist of the Asian American Arts Center in New York. Lee’s educational background includes a BA in fine arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, a MFA in painting from the University of California at Berkeley, and a second MFA in digital arts from Pratt Institute in New York.
