Chris Lee is a graphic designer and educator based in Lenapehoking (Brooklyn, NY). He is a graduate of OCADU and the Sandberg Instituut. His research/studio practice explores graphic design’s entanglement with capitalism and colonialism/ity through the banal genre of the document. He recently published his first book, Immutable: Designing History, with Onomatopee. He is also currently developing a typographical project that narrates the oscillating racialization of the “East-Asian” between the “model minority” and “yellow peril” and its role in consolidating Euro-American settler identity. Chris is an Assistant Professor in the Undergraduate Communications Design Department at the Pratt Institute.
