   Constant becoming. Accumulated mistakes.

       


                    A thing is not just what it is right now, but also what it withdraws from us, what it could be, and what it might become.





 

Kim explores how landscape, memory, and mediated image can return as sculptural environment. Working across sculpture, installation, she begins from walking, looking, and remembering, and from the way nature is increasingly encountered through screens, distance, and projection rather than direct contact. What remains is not a fixed image of landscape, but a translated terrain shaped by residue, desire, and imagination.

Kim works with materials such as plaster, the works stands on the threshold between something that goes beyond forms and the physical world, allowing forms to emerge that seek in states of transition and ambiguity, hovering in states of ‘becoming’- neither familiar nor unfamiliar, but suspended in between that exists beyond our desire, fear, or dream.

Through this inquiry into perception, materiality, and transformation, Kim Hyun Jee resists metaphysical fixity, and her sculptures propose that reality is an ongoing choreography of perception, matter, and interpretation.

I Want to Understand You and I Forgive You








I Want to Understand You and I Forgive You
video, 1’17, 2022

         


I Want to Understand You and I Forgive You manifests as a multimedia opus wherein the artist engages in a recorded introspective monologue, delving into the intricacies of their paternal sentiments. The absence of scripted discourse imbues the piece with an unfiltered authenticity, akin to a solipsistic therapeutic dialogue, encapsulating the artist's journey toward self-revelation. In the atmospheric backdrop of an overcast and blustery day, the artist grapples with a heightened emotional state, transcending the quotidian tribulations. Against this tumultuous emotional canvas, the artist's attention is drawn to a solitary tree, its sinuous branches gracefully swaying in response to a subtle zephyr. These arboreal appendages, in their undulating cadence, evoke an anthropomorphic semblance of anguish and bewilderment, yet persistently exhibit an innate inclination toward survival—an allegory harmonizing with the artist's own existential milieu.

This documentation serves as an intimate visual testament, portraying my silent communion with the arboreal subject, thereby encapsulating a profound symbiosis between introspective human inquiry and the stoic resilience of the natural realm, navigating the nexus of emotional self-exploration and a contemplative rendezvous with the arboreal tapestry. In this multidimensional creation, the artist's internal narrative converges with the silent struggles of nature, beseeching viewers to not only witness the unfolding of a personal odyssey but also to engage in a cerebral discourse on the indomitable human spirit in the face of existential tempests.
