Susan Lee-Chun examines the polarizing impacts of race and identity politics by creating egos of assimilation, independence, and mediation. As the three Suz, Lee-Chun manufactures their homes, sews their clothes, partakes in their rituals, stages their interactions, and promotes their merchandise. In the end, branding takes on an authentic identity all its own.
Since studying at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Susan Lee-Chun has exhibited widely in the U.S. and abroad, and held residencies at the Bemis Center in Omaha, NE and Three Walls in Chicago, IL. Her work is found in many important public and private collections, including the Miami Art Museum.
