Bumin Kim acknowledges the transformative power of materiality at play, and has repurposed the context of thread and string to emphasize the energy, delicacy, and grace of painting. Both the weight of the line as thin and singular, and the collection of lines en masse, as solid form, are tools which Kim uses to build complex forms that vibrate just above the surface. Kim’s intricate manipulation of materials highlights her ability to challenge the traditional model of what a painting should be. Brushstrokes become thread and string, and the flat surface is liberated to breathe into three-dimensional space. This echoes the charged expanse between the earth and skies in North Texas, where subtle hues and solid forms dissolve into immaterial prisms of flowing color.

Installation titled Fuschia, is an exploration of the transformative power of nature’s materiality and color. Bumin combines painting and thread to simplify the landscape into geometric forms that transform the space. Through these materials, the artist references the organic movement of nature, and specifically, the dancing multi-colored blossoms of fuschia flowers which hang and droop beautifully. -review by Facebook Artist in Residence Program
