Votive
Adam Lee
Perimeter Editions
Adam Lee presents ‘Votive’ – as an expression and evocation of faith – his first major art publication showcasing works from three exhibitions in Toronto, Melbourne and London. From the deep and luminous blues in Transfiguration (2016) veiling the cover to the vibrant artworks displayed throughout, the book offers a visual journey exploring faith, spirituality and hope. Drawn from personal relationships and historical, mythological and literary references, Lee’s paintings cross the boundaries from the seemingly familiar to new and otherworldly existence.
Accompanied by Dan Rule’s introduction, Jack Willet’s essay and a conversation between the artist and Kim Dorland, ‘Votive’ delivers an insightful understanding of Lee’s inspirations, approach and processes of his painterly practice.
