Hessian hanging from rafters, wood-shavings and scraps of rubber piled up and swept into corners; Katie Lee's latest body of work describes a strange and confusing workshop.

Using a range of low-grade materials to create her installations, Katie's work unearths a complex range of associations. Following an ongoing interest in exploring the effects of rationalisation,Lee blends the real with the imaginary creating peculiar and vaguely menacing environments. Part stage, part workshop, this installation has the look of being abandoned mid-production. The residue of which alludes to a disturbing history, or perhaps a future threat.

Katie Lee is currently doing a Masters at RMIT. Her undergraduate studies were completed in Tasmania and she has been living and exhibiting in Melbourne for the past 6 years, including a recent show at Conical Inc in March 2005.
