His renowned Human+Love+Light mobile, composed of multi-coloured, cloud-like suspensions made from metallic threads and silicone, was shown on center-stage at the exhibition Korea now! at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris as part of France-Korea Year.[2]

Building a bridge between man and nature, Lee’s work is a perfect illustration of the concept of vital energy 气 (Qi), which is omnipresent in the artistic culture of Eastern Asia. He creates sculptures of primordial shapes that, at first sight, evoke human cells or the notion of fertility. Made out of entangled piano wires, which the artist sometimes brightens up with vivid colors; they establish a dialogue between fullness and emptiness while sustaining the resonance of their initial role. Once suspended in air, the vibrating play of light on the sculptures, and the apparent fusion with their surroundings into one symbiotic unity, bring the ovoid shapes to life. The inner core of Lee SungKeun’s artworks can be resumed to their title: Human + Love + Light.

Recently[when?] exhibited at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris in a group show celebrating the 120 years of friendship between France and Korea (Korea Now), Lee SungKeun is a leading figure of the Korean Art Scene. His artworks are now to be found in the most prestigious collections, from the National Contemporary Museum of Korea to the Triennale of Milan, via the Korean Ambassy in Beijing. [3] [4]
