I Want You To Remember:

Korean artist JeeYoung Lee (previously featured here) continues to amaze us with awesomely imaginative transformations of her tiny 3 x 6 meter (~10 x 20 foot) studio in Seoul. Lee spends weeks, if not months, hand-painting backdrops and building sets and props for each photo she takes. There’s no digital photo manipulation involved, everything you see in these elaborate scenes was created by hand. It’s all very real and incredibly labor-intensive, yet each photo looks like a glimpse into Lee’s vivid dreams.

At the focal point of nearly every photo is the artist herself, her gaze never quite meeting the viewer’s directly. Inspired by Korean fables or personal experiences, these imaginative self-portraits explore “her quest for an identity, her desires and her frame of mind,” according to OPIOM Gallery. “Her creations act as a catharsis which allows her to accept social repression and frustrations. The moment required to set the stage gives her time to meditate about the causes of her interior conflicts and hence exorcise them; once experienced, they in turn become portents of hope.”

Lee’s latest exhibition, entitled Stage of Mind, opens in Bogotá, Colombia in May of this year, and then in Belfast, Ireland starting in June.

Saguaros rank among the largest of any cactus or desert plant in the world, but  a saguaro’s growth is extremely slow. After 15 years, the saguaro may be         barely a foot tall. At about 30 years saguaros begin to flower and produce fruit. By 50 years-old the saguaro can be as tall as 2 m.  After about 75 years on average, it may sprout its first branches, or “arms”. By 100 years the saguaro may have reached 7.5 m. An adult saguaro is generally considered to be about 125 years of age.  Saguaros may live at least 150 years, however, biologists believe that some plants may live over 200 years.
