Veri Lee is a Korean-Canadian illustrator and concept artist based in Toronto. She studied Illustration at OCAD University.

In 2013, she relocated to Vancouver, Canada. While living in Vancouver, she synthesized the intersection of the two cultures in her art by perceiving the Canadian culture through the lens of her Korean heritage and integrating it into her artistic vocabulary.In her art, Veri strived to elevate Korean culture by using digital media. She is passionate about creating a hybrid version of Korean culture and entertainment art of the future. She interprets traditional Korean culture and merges them with futuristic themes, as a way to generate visual interest for international audience and to suggest a new way of seeing tradition for Korean people in her generation.
