Jeehee Kim

Jeehee Kim is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works between London and Seoul. Now she is in the second year of MFA Fine Art at Goldsmiths University in London, UK. She graduated with a BFA at Hongik University in Seoul, exploring oriental painting and oriental philosophy.

“My artistic vision is to capture the phenomenological trails of transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary through encounters with others. Such encounters consistently transform the individual beings on the multi-layered territory and create overlapping traces on their bodies and spaces.

Through the engraved senses, they look again at the ‘cognitive landscape’ beyond the history they are standing on and continue to make a chronology of incompleteness. Thus, I adopt the methodology of sculptural painting to trace and taxidermize these cycles of transformation and connection through visual language. Ultimately, the chronology of you and me, translated into artworks, will be offered to the audience as an artistic prototype to promote a flexible and horizontal cognitive world beyond the existing dichotomous borders.”
