“Nopiates committee's transformation project sheds light on substance abuse disorder”

We all originate from the core of emotion.

A rock, the nature, our body is a perfect connected metaphor, an allegory in volume. When placed it’s sculptural limits beget a kind of proposition — and when considered with reduced anthropomorphism and ungeologically — produce a ready-made analog to the causation and bounds of our attempts at the understanding of all things.

Kim Hyun Jee is a sculptor who centres her work on 압 (壓, 押) – "the act of pressing”. In reflecting our current socio-political landscape, where radical politics often exploit or diminish the power of language, she engages with the layered meanings of the traditional Chinese character 압 (壓, 押), which can be interpreted as ‘physically pressing’ or ‘psychological, social pressure’.

Using ceramics, silicone rubber, and other mixed media, Kim expresses her philosophies through the concept of "pressing"—fully embracing the primitive pressure, temperature, and emotion. Her work suggests new possibilities for communication, emphasizing the transformative power of poetic expression.
