METAL MAGAZINE
Yi-Shuan Lee - Painting With Your Soul by Emma Vilagran Leal.
Via METAL;
The back of the leftover concert posters from his parents were Yi-Shuan Lee’s first canvases when he was just 4, 5 years old. Now based in Toronto, the young Taiwanese-Canadian boy has turned into a multidisciplinary artist whose practice spans painting, sculpture and film-making. “I am simply making works with the most genuine approach possible”, he explains. With the goal of producing authentic work, he also introduces East Asian perspectives into his work as “Being aware of the stereotypes and misinterpretations on how the world sees East Asia is my way of understanding my place in the world.” Delve into the mysterious, cigarette-crowded universe of this artist and learn more about his paintings.
