Kim Bo-sun

“Before working, I meditate in a quiet room.” Kim Bo-sun paints the feelings sensed in meditation, along with the stories and lives of the many people met through life and connection, as non-figurative painting, sublimating stories that bloomed in life into energy. Kim paints with gemstone powder and also with hologram techniques. Especially striking are the works that use gemstone powder to paint the energy of the stones, a new life created at the end of life.
