Artist Comments
Artist Hyoungseok Kim paints a monochromatic portrait of a woman in pointillism with metallic green dots forming the representational image. The flow of particles emphasizes the material and scientific features of nature. "The minimum unit characteristics can be applied to all basic elements," describes Hyoungseok. He strongly bases his concepts and ideas on materialism and natural sciences.

About the Artist
Artist Hyoungseok Kim produces contemporary figurative work using pointillism as his preferred technique. “According to the theory of modern physics, all communications and connections can be dealt with not only in terms of spiritual or psychological dimensions but rather in physical reality,” explains Hyoungseok. He enforces pointillist methods to emphasize the material aspect of his colorful compositions, representing the energetic behavior through a flow of vibrant dots and particles. His art gravitates toward representing people captured in everyday occurrences. Fully aware of his artistic calling, Hyoungseok pursued a BFA and MFA degree in art. With the full support of his family, Hyoungseok established a studio, doubling as a small wood workshop, at their home in Dacula, Georgia. He uses reference photos to recreate and transform beautiful renditions of the ordinary and mundane. Aside from his artistic endeavor, he enjoys woodworking and crafting bespoke audio systems. Music always plays from his personally handcrafted speakers to accompany him as he paints.
