The Story

Yee Haw!, 2025 by Lee Beach explores the cowboy as both cultural icon and carefully crafted myth. Drawing from the exaggerated drama of the bucking rider, Beach examines how the American West was transformed from lived experience into spectacle — bold, theatrical, and built to sell adventure. Playful yet sharply observant, the work captures the moment the cowboy became legend.

About the artist

A fourth-generation El Pasoan, Lee Beach draws inspiration from the cultural rhythm of the El Paso–Juárez border. His work explores how identity is shaped through labor, movement, and memory, where everyday symbols evolve into carriers of meaning—blending pop art aesthetics with mixed media. Beach transforms familiar imagery into compositions that balance tension, endurance, and restraint. 

Rooted in the Borderplex yet global in perspective, his practice reinterprets Mexican and American iconography through a contemporary lens. Recurring figures such as the cowboy do not appear as static legends but as bodies in motion, defined by risk, repetition, and time. Gilding functions as both material and metaphor, marking the moment where work becomes myth and myth becomes something displayed, circulated, and remembered.
