ABOUT THE ARTWORK

DETAILS AND DIMENSIONS

SHIPPING AND RETURNS


This work captures a body folded inward, caught in a position that feels both protective and restrictive. The figure bends into itself, as if trying to hold something in—or keep something out. The tension is not external, but internal, built through posture, compression, and repetition of lines that...

About the Artist

Young Kim

United States

Dallas-based artist represented by Sparrow Gallery (Sherman, TX), and Galerie du Nord (Amsterdam).

I discovered art in elementary school in South Korea, where I created my first memorable piece—a diver exploring the ocean. Without formal training until middle school, I learned the basics of drawing and was encouraged by a teacher to pursue art. Financial realities, however, led me to choose a different path.

While studying at university, I drew cartoons as a hobby, often with Christian themes, which were widely shared in churches. After graduation, I became a computer programmer, leaving little time for art.

I returned to painting in 2006, briefly exploring oils, and again in 2016 with acrylics, learning largely through self-study and online resources. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I began painting more seriously, dedicating time to practice and growth.

In 2022, inspired by artists like John Singer Sargent and Egon Schiele, I focused on portraiture and expressive figurative work—an approach that continues to shape my style.

In 2023, I was invited to exhibit at Sparrow Gallery, marking the start of my professional career. Since then, I’ve become active in local art communities in North Texas.

Today, I work across multiple media—including oil, acrylic, ink, and collage—on paper, wood, and canvas. Though self-taught and a late starter, I fully embrace the artistic path I once set aside.
