Soyoung L Kim

When I was six years old, my family moved from Seoul, S. Korea, to Nairobi, Kenya. It was then that I first learned the value of creating images and connecting with people through art. When one loses the ability to communicate with words, images become so much more important/valuable. And while that time in my life where verbal communication was almost nonexistent was short, it left a lasting impression on me. As with most artists, I have been drawing and painting and making things my whole life. I received a MFA in Writing from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and currently live in Boston, MA.
