KIM

I produce from my studio - an ever evolving body of work where my passion
so far has been mostly in the figurative genre. Also simply the freedom of
movement: a diverse physical and psychic entity in constant communication
with itself - evokes emotion, tastes, truths, pleasures, and damage. I
capture one moment; a glimpse of a moment transcribed visually, connecting
with what it might mean - loaded - to live a life.

The body is a recurring theme which also means it can be traced back and
depicted through ancient symbolisms... for me, an experiment that can also
investigate gender - as part of a possibility to change - a precursive
movement to into understanding body habitation. To be able to decode
metaphor, let consciousness open up , wider, in all physical, pathological,
psychological senses... where reality strikes paradox. There something
primal echoes, where we are all the same. We have different experiences,
and chemical reactions. For me the question arises - 'what constitutes
naturalness?'

I paint for my own record, to what makes my heart sing, to what feeds my
soul. In my own choreography. In this space I learn my own time, love and
understand people I meet along my way. Actually I paint because I don't want
to stop...
