Artist Statement

Moved by vivid colour and energetic brushstrokes, Farrah Lee is passionate about incorporating both into her art. Never wanting to find herself stagnant as an artist, she constantly experiments with new mediums and finds ways to bridge them with her true love, acrylic paint. She seeks out statuesque shapes and uses vivid, contrasting colours to create paintings and sculptural pieces that seek to move and inspire. Evoking dreamlike exploration in abstract forms, her abstract expressionism is the language in which she communicates emotion and life experiences. She finds herself most free when working on large scales that allows her art to evolve and move with her inspiration, a true intuitive painter.
