Dance, Dance, Dance. #8

Created by the Seoul- and New York-based artist Kakyung Lee, Dance, Dance, Dance is a suite of ten prints made using drypoint, a printmaking process in which a design is drawn on a plate with a sharp, needle-like instrument. Each print is a self-portrait featuring her repetitive gestural movements. Rather than the traditional copperplate, Lee used a single Plexiglas plate known for its fragile and unforgiving nature, turning her fleeting, mundane, or perhaps frustrating moments into a series of intimate spectacles.

Print with frenetic black strands of ink coating a central column of the white page. Within the frenzy of black strands is the silhouette of a woman lurching forward, facing our left and bending down, so that she's only in the lower half of the print, her hair flinging forward over her head and left arm bent at her side. Her hair extends to the edge of white space on the print's left side.
