Re Jin Lee (b. 1977) is a ceramicist who creates unique, sculptural pieces entirely by hand using ancient coil and slab techniques. Born and raised in Sao Paolo, Brazil to South Korean parents, her work emerges from a synthesis of inspirations ranging from Brazilian architecture, Korean traditional arts, and the temporality and simplicity of the natural surroundings in Pound Ridge, NY, where she lives and works.
