Xian Kim

Xian Kim’s artistic process involves reimagining familiar living things and everyday objects, transforming them into still life creations with a texture reminiscent of plastic. By distilling the essence of objects and eliminating extraneous details, Xian Kim invites us to contemplate a pure and simplified representation of reality. Through her artistic vision, she constructs an idyllic realm untouched by the complexities of everyday life, offering a serene refuge where we can temporarily forget our concerns and embrace a peaceful existence.
