December 04, 2007 | | Sung Jin Kim |
Opening this week in Seoul at the Gallery Hyundai will be Korean-born artist Sung Jin Kim's second solo show. Created in photorealism and exploring the mouth as the battlefield of the face, the artist's looks at the subject as a sensory organ as well as a means to consume and communicate. Using a large scale to present the lips while omitting the rest of the face in negative space the artist brings the viewer up close and personal with the only part of the human body we can see outside of as well as inside of. Sung Jin Kim received an MFA from Hongik University, Seoul and has also shown with doART Gallery.
