Seung Lee Showcased at Redlands Community

REDLANDS, Calif. – Mixed media artist Seung Lee will be among five artists featured during the annual “Evening with the Artists” hosted by the Redlands Community Hospital Foundation on Friday, April 25.

“My work is significantly influenced by the two poles of the Ying and Yang, the Asian positive and negative,” explains Lee, “and the interactions between humans and nature.”

The Cathedral City resident follows a series of five principles and a mixed media approach to construct his multicolor, woodcut creations. He has been featured in many galleries throughout his career. Lee discovered his love of art through its development into a language that he uses to communicate his vision. He says his pieces are currently influenced by everyday life, journeys, hopes and wishes.

“Each of my pieces features 10 to 20 layers of carving covered by layers of pre-painted paper and heavy, multicolor woodblock ink. This gives every image a three-dimensional texture,” explains Lee.

Lee joins local artists Aida Schneider, Angela Koenig, Martha Cowan, and Ray Fedorchak at the annual “Evening with the Artists” event. Lee’s artwork will be available for purchase at the Stan and Ellen Weisser Education Pavilion from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 25. Proceeds will benefit the Redlands Community Hospital Foundation’s art fund. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served during the evening’s elegant event. Tickets are $20.

The Foundation’s art program began in 1978 and today, the hospital exhibits a collection of more than 750 works of original art and historic photographs in the Redlands Community Art collection.

Redlands Community Hospital Foundation supports Redlands Community Hospital, which is an independent not-for-profit, stand-alone hospital.
