I could browse endlessly through Sean Marc Lee’s photographs. Yes, they showcase beautiful girls and bicycles and cats, and I’m wary of the overpopulation of these kinds of images on the internet, but Lee infuses something more into his work. The intrigue of people and places unknown and the rare ability to imbue otherwise mundane moments with a transcendent charm.
