Kwangho Lee lives and works in Seoul, South Korea, having received his Bachelor of Arts in 2007 from Hongik University, majoring in metal art and design.

Making things by hand was a great joy of Lee’s childhood, reminding him of his grandfather, a farmer who constantly made daily household goods from natural materials found nearby. Lee appreciated the way he looked at everyday objects and thus began to approach things in similar ways, to give new meanings and functions to the most ordinary.
