Mire Lee's new site-specific work is on view at Yeongdo, an island imbued with the history of migration and labor. Lee’s installation takes the island’s history, as it was the center for shipyard labor and the home for refugees and displaced people after the 1930s, as a point of departure to discuss larger issues surrounding modern industrialization practices.
