About The Artwork

In their lives, everyone experiences deep grief over the loss of their loved ones. People mourn and remember the deceased in their own way, and the artists create music, poems, and paintings to sublimate their sorrow into art. The guilt, saudade, and emptiness that drown us after losing someone so precious who was like the reason for life... I painted to comfort those who remain, wishing that the death of their beloved does not come as a sad end, but as a beautiful continuation of life, and praying their eternal rest. The triangle, a stationary figure which stands out in the works, has the image of rise and fall according to its angle, and it expresses my belief in the ascent of the soul to heaven and reincarnation. Like the Egyptian pyramid, which symbolizes the staircase to heaven, the upward triangle rising infinitely represents my hope that their souls will reach heaven to rest in peace and watch us from the sky. On the other hand, the downward triangle exhibits my desire that they will descend from the sky and we will meet again with another new relationship.

Hye-Jin Stella Kim is a young emerging artist, specialised in abstract painting and mixed media, who currently lives and works in Daegu, South Korea. She moved to New York in 2008 to study fine arts and received her B.F.A. in painting at Pratt Institute. She has held group and solo exhibitions since 2012, including “Abstract Mind”, “Memorial” and “Meditation” in Korea, and “Letters from Sapporo” in Japan. My artistic goal is creating visual art everyone can enjoy including the people with visual impairment. I take pictures whenever I find beautiful scenes, and write letters/poems describing my feelings at the moments using lots of visual imageries, so that blind people can draw the scenes in their minds. Then I make reliefs using braille system and photos, in the purpose of being seen differently by the people who can see and who can not. At first sight, they will seem to be abstract reliefs, and when people become blind and touch the works, they might be able to see the real pictures.
