Jae J. Rhee

Dr. Rhee's creations have been on display in over 20 solo shows and 50 group shows in South Korea over the past 13 years. Much of her art is now proudly owned by a number of prominent people and she has received prestigious awards and recognitions honoring her creative talent. Dr. Rhee graduated from the Advertising Art College, California, U.S.A. She received her Postgraduate Certificate from Kingston University in the U.K., and then her MA in Art, Craft and Design Education from the University of Roehampton in the U.K. She earned her Doctorate in International Design of Advanced Study from Hongik University in South Korea. Dr. Rhee, or "Jade" as she in known to her American friends, was also very successful as the Senior Art Director for International Network Associates, an advertising and film production corporation with offices and production facilities in both the U.S. and Mexico. In a highly complementary review of Dr. Rhee's art in the Korea Times, the reviewer examined the emotional and psychological meanings of the use of tiny chairs made of wooden toothpicks as an integral part of her work. Using these, she plumbed the events of her life and transferred them to canvass for the world to share and appreciate.
