Lehmann Maupin would like to announce an exhibition of new work by Mie Yim. This will be the artist's first solo exhibition.

The hazy, colorful pastel drawings of Mie Yim depict stuffed bears, bunnies, and other creatures in disconcerting situations and environments. While the artist's bright palette, soft-edged style and stuffed animal figures recall a pictorial language associated with childhood innocence, Yim's characters project blank, puppy dog stares as they find themselves in strange, unsettling fantasy worlds abound with prone creatures, interpersonal anxieties, sexual situations, and power games.
