A Conversation with Sook-Yin Lee: A Life in Motion
Advertisement
Lee explores how artists navigate institutions and why the fringe remains one of culture's most vital places for new ideas to emerge.
About this Event
Adventurous artists rarely remain within a single discipline. Driven by curiosity rather than convention, they move fluidly between mediums, building a creative language that draws from each new form. Over a career spanning film, music, broadcasting, performance, and writing, Sook-Yin Lee has embodied this spirit of exploration, embracing experimentation, collaboration, and the unexpected.
In this intimate conversation, moderated by Marigold Santos, Lee reflects on a career shaped by creative risk-taking and cultural production across multiple worlds. They will explore how artists forge their own paths, sustain an independent practice over decades, and why the fringe continues to be one of culture's most fertile grounds for new ideas.
