"The patterns in this piece were derived from the places of childhood play and the memories of me hiding myself inside a closet as a place of escape. The piece also involves a series of occurrences that happened in childhood relationships. To imply the state of emotional chaos, Op art was employed in tactfully expressing the messiness of a room; and by turning mere boudoir items, or sewing tools into ones that seem aggressive and disquieting, I tried to evoke the fear that a child has when facing changes to the world they are familiar with. It also tells that unforeseen difficulties may lie in wait nearby."
_JeeYoung Lee
"Cette oeuvre est inspirée de mes souvenirs de jeux d'enfants ainsi que du placard où j'aimais me cacher afin d'y trouver un échappatoire.L'oeuvre se base sur une série d'interactions sociales que j'eus à cet âge là ayant mené au conflit. L'art optique a été employé succinctement afin de créer une impression de désordre et d'évoquer le chaos émotionnel qui m'habita alors. En transformant en éléments agressifs de petits objets généralement utilisés dans le but d'opérer de menus changements, je souhaitais évoquer la peur qu'éprouve un enfant lorsqu'il est confronté aux changements intervenant dans un monde qui lui est familier."
