The Tate Modern Museum, a contemporary art museum in London, England, has commissioned Korean sculptor Mire Lee to install the works in the turbine hall in the museum.

Lee is a rising star sculptor in the global art world and is famous for producing and exhibiting grand and epic works using rather horror-looking elements such as guts and bones.

Through these artworks, She expresses the coexistence of fear and beauty, strength, and fragility of the finiteness of life.

She is the ninth annual artist of the Hyundai Commission to transform Tate Modern's Turbine Hall starting this October. The event is part of an extensive partnership project between Hyundai Motor and the museum, which will run until 2026.
