encounters
Minny Lee

“I see each tree with its own personality. When trees move by carrying wind, their movements and sounds create beautiful harmony. Nature is so grand; I am just beginning to understand a little bit of it.” _ Minny Lee

“Trees have become the main character in a story she composes in images. In her eyes trees move, vibrate, and communicate, and her images translate the range of feelings that this observation inspires.” _ Gabriel Bauret, In Praise of Trees

“encounters” is a photographic portrait of trees the artist has encountered in everyday life. This second edition is a handmade limited release of 200 copies. The critical essay from the first edition has been replaced with poems written by the artist herself. The book flows through photographs, an essay, and poetry, guiding us into intimate emotions. Each copy includes one original print by the artist.
