As a pioneer of Korea’s contemporary experimental art, KIM Soun-Gui has explored conceptual art and experimental performance since the late 1960s. KIM’s work on view, “Saekdong Cloud” is made with Saekdong, a traditional multicolored fabric from Korea. This visual element draws attention to the center of the work and allows the eyes to focus on the layering of colors. On top of the stretched fabric, she paints a cloud with traditional Korean ink, which reflects the artist’s attitude of living like the clouds, roaming freely above today’s fast paced society. Finding creative impulses from laziness, she discovers the essence of life and its infinite possibilities. In 2022, KIM is scheduled to hold a solo exhibition at the ZKM Center for Art and Media and participate in the 58th Carnegie International.
