Yool Kim “Play Factory”

Court Tree Collective

This event has ended.

Court Tree Collective presents “Play Factory” by South Korean artist Yool Kim. This is the first solo show for this up and coming outsider artist. Her work demonstrates the artist’s desire to use modern pop culture to soothe her emotional state of personal acceptance.

Yool Kim examines the inner and outer aspects of an individual and boldly reveals the process of incomplete growth. The disorderly patterns and colors mean the existence of another area that is different inside and outside, and it serves as a sufficient setting to describe it. The interesting composition is also an appropriate expression. We also remain incomplete to live as oneself whom everyone wants to be in their respective relationships, but we suggest the possibility that some of the differences can be recognized and coexist with each other.It’s the role of self discovering she has taken through painting.

In a short period of time Yool has created a world for herself through social media and the large number of collectors that have become obsessed with her work. We have watched her work grow, develop and change with precision, yet keeping intact the style she has incorporated from the beginning.

“I draw myself. I want to express everything I feel in life, such as my thoughts that are not organized, my dreams, my relationships with people. I who want to be acknowledged and be recognized for my differences, my happiness, and what I love. Those thoughts are expressed in disorderly and chaotic body movements, and several faces overlap. Also, the length and number of arms and legs are different. The relationships with people, the way people look at me, the way I look at myself, the way I look at people, the way I want to be small, but confident, the same face, but the position of the dots, express another version of me. I draw a series of thoughts that are mixed in my head that have not matured, which has not grown unlike my body, as if dividing into categories.”
