Raina Lee is a second generation Taiwanese-American artist working in sculpture and ceramic installation. She is known for her experimental glazes and painterly applications of glaze. In her current practice, she combines sculpture and ceramic glaze as a new language of painting. She revisits significant moments in art history through the lens of her personal encounters with art works, memory, and place. Her work explores ways non-Western cultures and art practices have influenced the Western art canon. She is interested in tracing Asian diaspora, displacement, and the erosion of time through a material practice.
