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

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.

Hyunjee Kim is a sculptor based in London, UK focusing on the process of making, resonating with Daoism and phenomenology. Kim ‘stops’ repeating the process at one point and watch the piece going on its new journey from that linear line. Her works withdraw from her as they belong to the larger unfolding of existence.

Using plaster, Kim creates something that wants to become something, something that chooses a path of becoming something new instead. Something new that is not new, but something that exists beyond our desire, dream, and fear. A belongingness that ties people together via our imaginations, individual expressions that differentiates how each of us perceive it. Her focus weighs on the process of ‘wandering’ and ‘walking’, drawing an intuitive map.

What she was making is not just what it used to be anymore, and that makes us foresee the existence beyond her perception at present and eventually starting to believe on what it could be, and what it might become. Her pieces contain a dynamic of endless possibilities and potentials that might over time change.
