Maki Kim
Post-its, sneakers, time spent with friends, family notes found at home... Maki Kim’s works depict recurring motifs that stir the viewers’ memories or make them giggle. On the screen and in the exhibition space, their compositions avoid narrative identification or linguistic signification, and we feel as if we are constantly being led astray – or "bugged" as the artist calls it – in our efforts to understand.
Kim experiments with painting. (For example, imagining the exhibition space for installations of paintings in a “meta” sense, creating a nested structure of illusions by painting the same motif on a large canvas in a small size and on a small canvas in a large size, or assembling an exhibition structure by semi-coercively linking multiple works together.) In other words, Kim creates the desired "bugged" state by using painting as a medium.
