Issue 3 of The Floorplan’s (Irregular) Column presents the interview with Jaye Rhee. For the past decades, Rhee revels in the space between the ironic and the poignant with work that simultaneously incorporates video, photography, and performance.
In this interview, the artist shares her thoughts on her role mediating the discrepancy between reality and the status, which is unreachable, and the ‘perfect moment’ for artwork, and her basis of creation.
Jaye Rhee’s work has since been exhibited at various international venues, including Albright Knox Art Gallery, Norton Museum of Art, Queens Museum, The Bronx Museum of the Arts, Mori Art Museum (Tokyo), Kobe Biennale 2007, The Seoul Museum of Modern Art, DOOSAN Art Center (Seoul), Gyeonggi Museum of Art (South Korea), Leeum Samsung Museum (Seoul), the Centro para os Assuntos da Arte e Arquitectura (Portugal) and La Triennale di Milano (Milan). She lives and works in New York.
