ABOUT THE ARTWORK

'Ninth Month' was painted at the end of 2022, inspired by the scenery of the Palace of Versailles hallway when the artist visited last September. Then she focused on the meaning of Number 9; 'Nine' itself holds its strong position in many different cultures, aka 'the sacred number', meaning that '...composed of the all-powerful 3 x 3, it is the Triple Triad; beginning and end; a celestial and angelic number.... as in the Hall of Light.’ Along with the fact that humans are -usually- born after 9 months, all together it symbolises 'the end of one cycle and the beginning of another'.

Minju Kim is a multidisciplinary artist, born in South Korea and based in London. Her work has been exhibited internationally, including London, New York and Seoul. She explores desire as a main subject matter alongside the concept of life and death, inspired by human anatomy and psychoanalytic theory. She has worked with Adidas London for celebrating Women’s Month in 2022 and her painting raised a significant amount of funding at the charity art auction held in Sotheby’s London in 2021. "Consciousness and corporeality are inevitable elements of human life. In diverse media, my work attempts to embody the sublimation of the human desire into perpetuity."
