Contemporary Artists for Kids: Christine Kim

Layered and mysterious, her work combines hand drawn figures with machine-cut pierced paper. Her work evokes feelings of memory, decay and fragmentation.

Discovery through play is part of her process. She prepares the parts then arranges them until she finds a pleasing configuration. “I think it’s this collage process that is the most exciting for me. It’s a creative puzzle that needs to be solved, and each one is unique in its challenges, and there are some that remain unsolved”. 2
