Madeline Lee is a visual artist and collaborator who explores the intersections of identity and place. Her work is based in observing people, environmental shifts and the subtle processes that create our daily lives. She is captivated by: food as storytelling; the creation of home(s); attention; observation and unraveling objectivity; the edges where things meet. Madeline grew up near Cleveland, Ohio and has been based in the Somerville-Cambridge area since 2015. Working in community development by day, Madeline pursues place-based connection in her work and has participated in exhibits through local arts organizations including Unbound Visual Arts (Allston-Brighton/Boston), Piano Craft Gallery (South End/Boston), Mosesian Center for the Arts (Watertown), The Umbrella Arts Center (Concord), and Pao Arts Center (Chinatown/Boston). Madeline has a B.A. from Tufts University in Architectural Studies and Environmental Studies with minors in Studio Art and Urban Studies.
