Yuki Kimura Biography

Born in 1971 in Kyoto, Japan.

Lives and works in Kyoto and Berlin. ‘Yuki Kimura’s work exists both as an elegant, static, physical form with a calmly assertive presence in space, and as an immaterial, wandering, and vibrating force reflective of all that exists around and throughout it—in the negative, so to speak. It initiates processes of transformation and is transformative itself, which may at first appear counterintuitive to its static appearance. The passive, mute, and durable world of objects and physical matter that one encounters in her work becomes a place of dynamic processes and shapeshifting, where the stable appearance and order of things are profoundly transformed. Kimura’s work operates beyond language, occupying an entirely visual sphere, but communicates at a highly visceral and embodied level of perception.’—Kathrin Bentele

Her work has been the subject of solo exhibitions such as COL SPORCAR SI TROVA,__The Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen-Düsseldorf, Düsseldorf, Germany (2022); Inhuman Transformation of New Year’s Decoration, Obsolete Conception or 2,... MORE
