Lee Kit has an attachment to things. Not particular objects that can be picked up, washed, sullied, felt, or lost, but rather the categories of existence that provide for these possibilities. His work is related to their objecthood, and often takes the form of an impersonal romance that initiates and shapes relationships between these errant things.
