Kim Eunjin
Eunjin Kim studied Oriental Painting at university before majoring in Communication Arts at graduate school. Her diverse body of paintings produced since 2002 has been driven by a curiosity about what gives us the strength to live in this world. Her themes include humans’ inner desires and frustrations, their dazzling displays of energy in the face of death, and their fear and sense of loss regarding extinction. Her interest has recently turned to the senses of anxiety and obsession we feel when faced with the time we have left to live.
