"I want to be collected - like Beatles memorabilia"

The artist Lee Dongi is perhaps best known for his subway mural in the Euljiro 3-ga subway station.  His animated character, Atomaus, is a combination of Disney's Mickey Mouse and Astroboy (called "Atom" in Japanese) by Tezuka Osamu.  Based on the artist's childhood fascination with Japanese and American culture, his Atomaus project serves as an icon of popular culture.

IHT-JAI: You referred to the animated character Atomaus as your alter ego. Can you elaborate on that?

Lee: Atomaus is an image that occurred to me one day. When I drew it on the paper, the image looked like a hybrid of Atom and Mickey Mouse. That was when I started calling the character Atomaus. I think the image was from my unconscious. In that sense, it was like my alter ego. Sigmund Freud noted that the unconscious is related to one's desires. The image allows you to read the social environment where I was raised.

IHT-JAI: Your work seems to fit better in public spaces rather than traditional gallery spaces. In fact, your work seems to be more favored by the general public than by people in the art world.

Lee: I want my work to be viewed by as many people as possible. I want people to collect my work just like they collect Beatles memorabilia. They don't necessarily have to be original works £­ cutouts from newspapers or magazines is fine. Artworks always provided a source of inspiration and a sense of direction for the intellectual elite. The works of Paul Cezanne, for example, prophesied Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and Einstein's unified field theory. But in a society where the TV viewing rate exceeds 50 percent of the population and the Internet use rates are the highest in the world, we need a different model of art.

IHT-JAI: Your interests vary; how does that influence your work?

Lee: I was a rock-music buff when I was in high school. I even formed a band at one point, although it broke up after a week because of our lack of talent. My involvement in various fields allows me to show my works to a wide audience. At the same time, those interests are a source of inspiration, which enriches my artistic practice.

IHT-JAI: What are some concerns you have when you work?

Lee: I want my work to become something like a ceramic, the kind of piece that has an exquisite polish on the surface but is empty inside so that you can fill it with anything you want. Sometimes I feel like a tightrope walker who tries to stay in balance between those two elements.
