Pui Lee
Pui Lee is a British-born Hakka Chinese artist and arts educator, working throughout the UK. She completed her Foundation Studies, BA (Hons) and MA in Contemporary Fine Art at Cumbria Institute of the Arts and is now based in Gateshead.
Pui Lee's artistic practice is wide-ranging and she works using an interdisciplinary approach across both traditional and contemporary 2D and 3D artforms including: drawing; printmaking; 3D installation, sculpture, Parade Art, and East Asian art and craft. Outside of the studio, she is also a dedicated martial artist, training in Choy Lee Fut Kung Fu and ITF Taekwon-Do.
Her arts engagement and educational work is informed by her practice, which uses scale, space, and process as a means of making sometimes complex ideas more accessible to people of all ages in the community. The work explores personal issues and public interaction - and has included winning 5 award-winning Big Draw! events. Pui Lee is a visiting artist for many galleries, museums and organisations across the North and is a regular Artist-Educator at YSP.
Over the years, Pui Lee has exhibited and sold work both nationally and internationally.

Eddy continues JocJonJosch’s investigations into collaboration. The round boat with three oars is symbolic of the collective’s dynamic, in which Joc, Jonathan and Joschi wrestle towards a destination. There is a sense that each time one would attempt to move forward, his movement would be countered by the action of the other two, leaving them literally turning in circles. - Art Outdoors
