Gallery Exit presents the exhibition A practice of viewing the veiled by Abby Lee. Using orthographic projection, Lee explores new visual possibilities, aiming to make art a precise tool for interpreting space and reality. Her paintings, created with surveying and cartographic methods, challenge the subjective limits of traditional perspective drawing. By keeping light rays parallel, she strives for visual objectivity.

Lee views orthographic projection as more precise than the human eye, re-examining everyday spaces and objects through her work. Often inspired by urban landscapes like cars and roads, her paintings reveal the blind spots of pedestrians and drivers while expanding spatial imagination.

The exhibition features two phases of Lee’s career. Early works, such as Reflection in taipei, capture reflections on car windows, reconstructing space from multiple viewpoints. Recent works, like Parking in cyan night focus on parked vehicles near her home, especially those covered with protective sheets, which she finds mysteriously captivating.

Through meticulous techniques, Lee explores the gap between the perception of “reality” and the essence of “truth,” offering a neutral visual language to present the multifaceted nature of space and objects. Her works invite viewers to rediscover overlooked details in everyday life.
