Summer Visiting Artist Lecture Series: Jocelyn Lee

Jocelyn Lee was born in Naples, Italy, and received her B.A. in philosophy and visual arts from Yale University and her M.F.A in photography from Hunter College. In 2020, she received a Maine Arts Commission Individual Artist Grant, NEA; in 2013, she received a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship, NEA; and in 2001, she received a Guggenheim Fellowship.

She is represented by Huxley Parlour in London, England, and Flatland Gallery in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Lee has been making psychological portraits for 40 years. Since her move to Maine in 2014, the landscape has taken on a greater role in her work. Her recent work has been made largely outdoors with a medium format film camera. All the images, be they of animals, plants, or human beings, describe the tactile and sensual nature of the world and our place, as embodied beings, within this material continuum.

Visiting Artist lectures are free and open to the public on a space-available basis.
