+ OVERVIEW
"Concealment" took a female as its structure to stretch the visual tense to its most. The artist tries to eliminate the retrains of human body, and further present the poetic characteristic within, and that came from the self-cultivation of the artist himself, as if literature and art could interact, and poetry could be read by viewing the art, Lee has given his best to capture that rhythm in that brief moment.
