Korean artist Jiyen Lee has released her mesmerizing collages of stairs. Standard atop these spirals of steps are groups of people, depicted as exceptionally small here by way of her elevated aerial perspective.
Lee has re-figured the steps here. Her positioning places them in no particular direction, making it appear as if her subjects have taken up endless trails to nowhere. There is also no particular beginning or end to her series, adding to the beautiful chaos that is essential to her work.
A dazzling array of colors are displayed throughout the series, seen not only in the light blue, ashen grey and pale yellow backdrops, but also in the apparel and accessories of the individuals that are featured in her snapshots.
