and Silicon Valley range from global brands as Samsung, Motorola, Nvidia,
Intel, and Williams-Sonoma.
His independent work includes LEAN released this Summer + new pieces in Fall 2011 - Conform, Checker, Slice, Poser.
Residing in New York, Lee’s creations continue to
evoke, expand, and evolve in his growth as an artist + designer.
