About this artwork
My work is a dialogue between what is “inside” the boundaries drawn by society and what lies “beyond” them. I first painted free-spirited colors on hanji, then trapped them with the black lines of “definition.” Yet, the true weight of the painting lies in the heavy, pearlescent and metallic hues that densely fill every space outside those lines. This compressed layer is the physical embodiment of the “violence of definition” that crushes us. But… within this pressure, the colors refuse to be silenced, crying out their essence. This is both a portrait of oppression and a declaration: We are colors that refuse to be trapped within the lines.

Junsung Kim, a self-taught artist specializing in mixed media, strives for a balance between various techniques including painting with acrylics, oriental paints, and using knife strokes. Presenting a potent contrast of crudeness and refinement, his art employs intricate texture work, stamping and staining evoking the natural deterioration of mural-like surfaces over time. Kim's works are embodiments of raw emotion, exuding his internalized anger and resentment from contemporary socio-political issues, simultaneously revealing the complexity of his thoughts through labyrinthine designs and philosophical themes.
