Beyond The Time

For nearly two decades, Youngmi Kim has explored blue as a space where memory, silence, and time accumulate.

Through repeated layers and vertical flows of pigment, her paintings bring together intention and gravity, memory and chance.

Beyond The Time traces what remains after memory begins to fade.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Blue is not landscape. It is a place where memory settles. Layers accumulate. Gravity leaves traces. Between intention and chance, time becomes part of the painting.
