Please be Clean When You Do It, Jim Lee's show at Nicelle Beauchene was an end of the day surprise in the LES. Ridley Howard interviews Jim Lee for Burnaway.
I try to slow people down…I want the viewer to discover things slowly; to have the paintings unveil themselves in a manner that takes time. I guess that’s all part of it. The surface, stretcher, the environment, I want it all to be a factor. I imagine it being like when an athlete talks about the game slowing down… it’s as if everything is functioning on the same level. I imagine it has more to do with confidence in one’s approach.
