Cutting, tying and carving are skills that Kwangho Lee learned on his grandparents’ farm. He applies them to his unique hand-crafted ‘Obsession’ furniture designs. The intertwined strands that make the furniture remind me of Ramen noodles right out of the package.
Kwangho Lee was educated at Hongik University in Seoul, Korea. His B.A. degree is from the Fine Arts Department of Metal Art & Design and has an impressive body of work posted online.
