Patrick Parrish Gallery is proud to present Catch and Release, Liam Lee’s debut solo exhibition inspired by the ephemera of creation and the perplexing poetry of what lies beneath the ocean’s surface. Known for phantasmagorical furniture constructed from felted merino wool, Lee is an NYC-based artist and designer whose work takes surrealist shape through creative instinct, technical improvisation, and a deep sensitivity to the power of sense-memory.

As a self-taught artist, Lee’s practice employs labor-intensive craft techniques in often unexpected ways that push the material and formal boundaries of his work. Speaking with his own formal vocabulary, Lee drenches his pieces in color and plays with texture, materiality, and scale in order to provoke viewers to reconsider how we relate to the objects within our homes.
