Jomi Kim

The malleable shapeshifting of this kitchen foil further invests the sense of movement and growth, as if living forms propagating through the dark wet soil, from which they rise in a cascade of reflections from their sheened surfaces, a play of light in which one moment they are the dull featureless detritus of our continuous consumption, the next the radiant treasures of another world. This paradox, this transitive state, this re-visioning of the inconsequential, this digging the ground, this uncovering of that hidden from the human eye... this is perhaps what may be identified as a fundamental essence of art. Kim’s installation is therefore an invitation to unearth a process of metamorphosis, to trace of a journey, to open up a new story and to be caught by the element of surprise.
