Mary Bernadette Lee is an artist based in Singapore and has been practicing since 2014.
She is an artist, educator, illustrator, co-creator, observer & collector of information & experiences through collaborations with communities, and is currently an adjunct lecturer at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts.
Mary’s understanding of the land’s characteristics, heart and soul stems back to 2017 when she visited Montroig del Camp in Catalunya, Spain. Here, she learnt about Joan Miró, a Catalan artist from Spain who lived and worked here, in Montroig del Camp from 1911 to 1976 where he devoted himself entirely to painting landscapes while developing a meticulous painting style paying close attention to details.
In 2018, over a glass of wine in Singapore, Mary met Miquel. As they shared experiences about the Priorat region, she felt that this project was not just an opportunity but a calling that had found her.
She believes that Art captures the essence of wine in the way both are created and nurtured; with love, authenticity and discipline. Their innate impulses are similar. Both endeavours to introduce new ways of experiencing, to delight the senses, and to ignite our imaginations.
“We are deeply grateful to have Mary as part of this project, as without her, it would lack an essentialpart of its soul.”
