My new series "Happiness on the most typical day" talks about gratitude, joy, and happiness on the most ordinary day. Unexpected, unprepared, the pandemic had taken my rights one by one like supernatural, omnipotent force. It first caged me in my most comforting house and acted Big Brother, severing all human interactions, which I rarely but sometimes enjoyed. And one day, it finally blew up my boiler tank—unrelated and random, but it is the pandemic I blame. For a week until the technician came, my home was not a place for drinking, cooking, showering, and all water things. I then realized things could go worse, and I still had something to lose. The unexpected experience of losing the most fundamental part of my life urged me to share my gratitude through my paintings. Appreciation became my theme and inspirational source of creativity.

Esther Kim is a South Korean Canadian raised in Vancouver, currently a Toronto-based artist. She majored in a Bachelor of Fine Arts from OCAD University (Ontario College of Art and Design University). Kim's works scrutinize the idea of gratitude on mundanity, delivering a sense of picturesque happiness—a celebration of a tedious moment. She explores simple, flat forms to encompass expressive, whimsical, calm, and joyous moments with her vibrant and pastel colour palettes. Her art practice is instinctive, schematic, almost childlike, represented by her simplified yet precise forms, shapes, and lines. To the simplification and abstraction in her art-making, Kim adds soft colours to bring a sense of tranquillity and vibrant colours to deliver a sense of energy and power. She shares her genuine gratitude for life and surrenders contemplation and tension, exploring the idea of family, home, and nature. Her works are an outlet of comfort, an undemanding space of serenity.
