Published Article in Painters on Painting
My first published essay! Thanks to Painters on Painting for inviting me to reflect on my influences. Find the full article on their site, and check their fantastic archive of artists on artists: Sandra Eula Lee on the Reflecting Pond
"Lee shares a meditation on East Asian garden ponds, using them as a reflection point to pull together artworks that slow time and center contemplation."

May 25-June 15, 2022Earth Day Virtual Roundtable
Feminism and the work of women artists for generations have presented distinct perspectives regarding the environment, inviting a more respectful coexistence with our natural surroundings and the resources and wisdom they offer. These concerns are ever more relevant today in the context of the crisis of climate change and the urgent need for alternatives to economic and political models based on the exploitation of both natural and human resources.
In this roundtable, three artists participating in “Off the Cloth”-- Eva Petrič, Isolde Kille, and Sandra Eula Lee--will address the ways in which their work takes up concerns with nature and the environment, and the ways in which this focus is tied to issues of gender and transdisciplinarity. The panel will be moderated by Karen Cordero Reiman, co-curator of “Off the Cloth”, and a scholar of feminist art and theory. The event will also feature Eva Petrič's video-performance "On the Day of my Birth" created for World Water Day 2022 in Dubai.

196 Guernsey, group exhibition
August 5 - September 18, 2011
Curated by Ginger Cofield, Lauren Haynes, and Sarah Thompson
With Sami Ben Larbi, Robin Cameron, Sophie Beatrice Grant, Langdon Graves, Charles Koegel, Sandra Eula Lee, Theresa Marchetta, Alisa Ochoa, Julie Quon, MiYoung Sohn, and Adam TayeThe house at 196 Guernsey Street was constructed as a multi-family home for the workers of the USS Monitor, the first ironclad warship that was used in the Civil War, built on the East River in Greenpoint in the early 1860s. The most recorded event in the history of the home was the 1904 fire on the East River on the passenger ship General Slocum, which killed over 1200 people. One of the few hundred survivors was a resident at 196 Guernsey who lost nine family members in the disaster. The house has been a residence for both multi-families and single families over the past century and a half and has undergone - and continues to undergo - considerable renovations. Traces of the original interior architecture are evident in some areas, such as the entry-level closet space where Sami Ben Larbi’s work is installed.
196 GUERNSEY is curated by Ginger Cofield, Lauren Haynes and Sarah Thompson.

From the stamp experiments of Fluxus mail artists like Robert Watts to fantasy stamps issued by fictional countries, this humble canvas has been home to all manner of free expression. The Book of Stamps is at once an homage to and continuation of this tradition.
