Lacey Kim
Art has always been the essence and natural flow of Lacey Kim's life. After graduating from Seoul Women's University with a degree in Western Painting, she completed master's programs at Nottingham Trent University in the UK and Pratt Institute in the US. Having established a structural foundation in painting through figurative work, she transitioned to abstract painting, exploring inner balance and the essence of existence through line and color. She has exhibited in diverse cities including New York, Chicago, Vienna, Miami, and Seoul, reflecting in her work the intersections of different cultures and aesthetic sensibilities. For her, art is a language for understanding oneself and connecting with others, and through it she explores the possibility of intuitive exchange between viewers' individual senses and experiences. Currently, drawing on this body of experience, she is also interested in the educational extension of art, sustaining artistic activities where creation and sharing coexist.
