As an interdisciplinary artist, she works primarily with moving image and installation and is particularly interested in the Postmodern relationship between representation(image) and the represented (subject) and the subsequent complicated implications of consent, consumption and power, between the two within the Baudrillardian context of a media-saturated hyperreality.
Kim’s works have screened nationwide at films festivals such as the Hamptons International Film Festival and venues such as the Museum of the Moving Image, Syndicated Theater, Firehouse Cinema, Stuart Cinema, and the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport. Her work has been supported by the Atlanta Film Society for the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, NYC Women’s Fund, administered by the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment and New York Foundation for the Arts, and the Local Arts Fund administered by the Brooklyn Arts Council.
