Text by Rieke Vos, Curator at Het HEM 

Jung Lee (1972, Korea) investigates the images that language can evoke and the language that images can evoke. Neon light is a recurring material that she uses to display internal and intimate worlds of experience and the related words in the public sphere. The lighting installation It’s Over is struck by visual speechlessness. At the end of the tunnel, concrete concepts fall into abstractions and words fizzle out in murmur.
