Cross of Joy, mixed media on paper 3.5*3.5 in 2010

삶이라는 것은 소소한 일상들이 모여 반복되고, 색이 덧씌워지며, 이어지는 만들어지는 하나의 작품인지도 모른다.

어찌보면 고통스러움 그 자체일지 모를 누군가의 삶이 아름다울 수 있는 단 하나의 이유는 주어진 십자가를 안고 묵묵히 걸어가는 모습 때문이다. 그리고 피하고 싶은 고통을 끌어안을 수 있는 힘은 바로 이런 소소한 일상들의 위대함 때문이다.

그가 걸어가는 고통스러운 길을 내가 우러러 보는 이유는 오직 그 길만이 하늘과 땅을 이어주는 매개체 역할을 하기 때문이다.

if we hope for what we do not see, we wait with endurance.

해가 지다 mixed media on paper 3.5*3.5in

내 삶에서 빼놓을 수 없는 것은 전세계 수많은 성당들에서 보냈던 시간들이다.
소음을 싫어하는 나였기에, 가능하면 많은 시간들을 조용히 생각할 수 있는 곳들을 찾아 헤메였고,
평일의 성당은 사람들이 거의 가지 않는, 그리고 조용한 내가 찾던 완벽한 장소였다.
성당에서만 느낄 수 있는 특유의 잔잔함과
빛의 움직임에 따라 변하는 스테인 글라스를 바라보는 것만으로도
나는 많은 힘을 얻었다.

이번 작품들도 아마 그런 시간들이 모여 만들어진 내 삶의 조각들이 아닌가 싶다.

Artist Statement+Brief Biography

2010-01-22T15:43:00.000-08:00

Artist Statement

The basis of my current work is abstract in nature. I usually paint focusing on form, colour, composition, movement, and emotion. In university, I studied Chinese literature and traditional Asian painting in the Korean style. During my masters, I learned International Public Relations with the focus that art would bind the people similar to the way in which the Olympics bring nations together.
I have developed this unique style through my personal study and experience in both the West and the East. Until now, I have continued to develop my unique style, which conceptually is concerned with human relationships.
I took many pictures, chose some of those images, and then inverted the images to form a pattern. Those small images represent the memories of a person’s life. It could also symbolize a person’s past, present and future. From those memories, we choose the focus for our life and live according to those beliefs.
These forms appear intentionally and are often conscious renderings of intuitive ideas. It is my hope that my paintings tell their own story.

Brief Biography

Sae Hae Kim is a South Korea artist who lives and works in Toronto Ontario Canada. Her interest in art began when as a child, she would venture to her parents art gallery with a pencil and scrapbook at hand.

Years ago in Korea, to be an artist meant financial instability and isolation from society. It was also nearly impossible for an artist’s work to garner notice, unless they were a graduate from a prestigious art college. She realized she needed to paint well and study hard, if she were to fulfill her dream of inspiring an emotional connection with others through her artwork.

In college, she studied Chinese literature and fine art with an emphasis on oil painting; creating over three-hundred paintings during her tenure. She has since studied independently in over twenty countries, while still finding the time to lecture and display her art in various exhibitions and galleries.

For me, art is like breathing…something that I do instinctively and independent of will.
I studied Chinese literature and traditional Asian painting in university. During my masters, I learned international PR with the focus that art would bind the people similar to the way in which the Olympics brings nations together.
The basis of my current work is abstract in nature. I took many pictures, chose some of those images, and then inverted the images to form a pattern. Those small images represent the memories of a person’s life. It could also symbolize a person’s past, present and future. From those memories we choose the focus for our life and live according to those beliefs.
I have developed this unique style through my personal study and experiences in 20 countries. Until now, I have continued to develop my unique style, which conceptually is concerned with human relationships.
