Japanese-born Lieh Sugai is a New York visual artist who works with photography and video. Her subject matter is memories that occur between people and places, and how these are shaped by time and culture. To explore these stories she uses her dual perspective as a Japanese immigrant whose home is also in America.
Lieh studied Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, where photography became her prevailing passion, as a way to enter, express and document different cultures, and to push the boundaries of her creativity. Her work has been exhibited at Foley Gallery and others around New York City, as well as internationally.
