This artwork is new large-scale paintings by Su hyun Kim. It presented "To Have and to Hold", a solo exhibition in Satellite, Seoul. If our eyes are the mirrors to our souls, then our hands are our connection to the world. Swiping a smartphone, putting food in our mouths, or opening a door, our hands turn our thoughts into reality. They can also reveal our labor, our relationships, and possibly, our potential for a long and happy life. Bearing the fabric of traditional Korean clothing, and the marks of struggle, the hands in Su hyun Kim’s paintings are colorful testaments to reunion celebrations. But they are also spectacular displays of dramatic duplicity. Uneasy embraces across history and geography, they hint at the painful reality of unending separation, clutching at fleeting and bittersweet happiness.

South Korea
There are tension forces between individual desires. She addresses the spectrum from a microscopic to a macroscopic perspective. The world stimulates human desires by using competitive structure as a driving force. It is as if one's life attempts to grasp a bittersweet happiness. Her paintings are a discourse of social analysis, a process of clipping media images, and classifying subjects. Her works challenge our sense of emotional honesty. She debates accountability and guilt, forcing us to question our complicity. Like photographs as witness to personal stories, her art depicts individuals as universal archetypes, simultaneously complex and simple, like each of us. Suhyun Kim was born in Busan, Korea. Her paintings have been exhibited in group and solo shows around the world since 2007, including at Gang kuk Samsung Hospital, Seoul Metropolitan Government, and Tom&toms Gallery in Seoul. She was an International Fellowship resident artist at the Vermont Studio Center, USA in 2010. She currently resides and works in Seoul, Republic of Korea.
