About the Item

The natural world provides infinite inspiration for the beautifully textured work of Chung-Im Kim. The fabric artist creates unique wall hangings from sewing tiny pieces of industrial felt together, pulled taut to add tension in the design and a 3D effect. This piece in creamy white is highlighted by organic shapes in a deep red that provide dramatic contrast. The first in a series. "For me, patterns are hard to ignore as I encounter everyday life….and working with patterns always gives me the thrill of entering a new world.” Chung-Im Kim Chung-Im Kim has received accolades and exhibitions for her work from prestigious institutions such as the Boston Museum of Art, the invitational Bojagi Exhibition at the Suwon Park Museum in Korea, the Museum Nagele in the Netherlands, and the Belgian Triennial Contemporary Textile Arts Exposition. Kim's exquisite design and execution have been honoured with top prizes and awards in many international art competitions. One of her works was selected as a gift from Canada to the president of China. She received her MFA from Seoul Women's University in 1984 and has taught at OCAD University in Toronto since 2006. She is represented by the Oeno Gallery.
