Reeha Lim – BOOOOOOOM! – Create *inspiring *community *art*design *music *movie *photo*project
Artist Reeha Lim’s painting on silk. Established between South Korea and China, Lim’s work currently resides in the United States, reflects the memory of displacement, the theme of spatial belonging, and the dispersion of self across borders. There are good experiences between clarity and opacity, familiarity and alienation, forming self-awareness in transits, and there are stratified descriptions:
“The body appears in my work, as in fragments and floods – capturing the sternum of the intermediate range, curly toes, and hovering hands. These bodies are not installed in place. They resist the spatial clarity of the building system, but rather suggesting a state of becoming unstable, lost, or quiet. My interest rejects. My desires are at the same time in space lies in its attitude-the established environment, that is, its environment, that is, the environment that constitutes or constitutes. The desire has not arrived.”
Lim works with contradictory materials (fragile but elastic, translucent but dense). Influenced by Korean painting technology Baechee, Lim acts from both sides of silk, allowing pigments to penetrate and embed into their structure. The translucent form, part of the characters and the transferred ground are layered to create a visual language that reflects the complexity of the diaspora.
