This is the reconstruction of a sculptural body-costume worn by the artist diring her 'Cravings' performance at the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Seoul in 1989. Hidden microphones amplified the sound of her movements. Lee recalled that her 'performances were a natural extension of my sculptural concerns'. She has continued to make sculptures, whose monstrous forms deconstruct ideals of the female body. In reconstructing "Untitled (Cravings White)" long after the original was lost in a studio flood, she reinforced the links between her sculptures and performaces.
