Lee

Professional Model

Profile

Minnie Lee is a Korean model and multidisciplinary artist based in New York City. Her practice explores the intersection of body, movement, and presence, using modeling as both medium and performance. Through her collaborations with photographers, designers, and visual artists, Minnie transforms the camera into a site of dialogue—between stillness and expression, vulnerability and strength.

Her work is guided by a desire to liberate both subject and viewer from fixed ideals of beauty and identity. Each image  inhabits becomes an invitation to see the body not as object, but as living form - dynamic, fluid, and uncontained. Inspired by her background in ballet, opera, and performance, Minnie brings an intuitive sense of rhythm and emotional depth to her modeling, creating images that resonate beyond the surface.

Exhibited in emerging gallery spaces and featured in independent publications, her portfolio bridges fashion and fine art. Minnie’s practice continues to expand through projects that challenge conventions, celebrate multiplicity, and encourage viewers to encounter themselves with greater openness and freedom.
