DOKI KIM
b. 1980, South KoreaDoki Kim takes a profound interest in the various layers of the world, including space and nature, society and culture, matter and energy, and time and space. Using immaterial media such as light, heat, gravity, and language, she creates works that explore the ‘phenomena’ that occur in the interaction of matter. Continually questioning ‘what’ we are and ‘how’ we exist, Kim’s work is scientific, philosophical, sometimes poetic, and shamanic. Through her multi-media installations that operate in various ways, the artist invites viewers to open their senses and engage as a passionate interpreter of her work.
Doki Kim lives and works in Busan. She has participated in group exhibitions at Ha Jungwoong Museum of Art(2023), Busan Museum of Art(2023), MoCA(2021), and Boan1942(2020). Her work is represented in the collections of MoCA Korea, Tokyo University of the Arts Museum.
