BIO

Doi Kim (b. 1995 Seoul, South Korea) is an artist based in New York City, USA, and Seoul, South Korea. She holds a BFA in Fine Arts from the Korea National University of Arts in Seoul, South Korea, and an MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York, USA. As an exchange student, she studied printmaking at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague for a year in 2017.

Her work is characterized by expressing an aesthetic and fantastic virtual world with elaborate lines by fully utilizing the characteristics of the medium of printmaking. Her works are grounded in printmaking practice but often borrowed from installation practices, animation, and performance. Inspired by nature and literature, she reinterprets animals' and plants' characteristics and anatomical images to create virtual creatures. She leaves socio-political commentary through the world that metaphorically indicates various elements of the contemporary landscape through the speculative world of anthropomorphic creatures. Her artistic practice aims to emancipate ourselves from the dominant narrative to highlight imaginative possibilities that reside within each individual.
She has curated a screening event, As the light disperses into the Eyes (2022), PCV A, and her two solo exhibitions, CE 20XX I (2022), space xx, Seoul, South Korea, and Velvet (2023), ChaShaMa Space, Manhattan, New York.

Her works have been shown in group shows at Project V Gallery, New York, NY; the 2022 Screenprint Biennial at Opalka Gallery, Albany, NY and Mirabo Press Gallery, Buffalo, NY; the 2022 Extreme Pressure Biennial of American Prints Exhibition, College of Central Florida, Webber Gallery, Ocala, FL; Susquehanna Art Museum, Harrisburg, PA; Manhattan graphics center, New York, NY; Untitled Art Miami Beach, Miami, FL; Starta Arta, New York, NY; Stone leaf Retreat, Eddyville, NY; SVA Gallery; Rear Window Gallery, Hangzhou, China; Ethan Cohen KUBE, Beacon, NY; Gallery AVU, Prague, Czech Republic; Šaloun Villa, Prague, Czech Republic. She received the Outstanding Achievement Award from the 2022 Tripvill International Film Festival. She became a member of the Society of American Graphic Artists in 2023.

BIO

김도이(b.1995)는 미국 뉴욕과 서울을 오가며 판화를 주매체로 영상, 퍼포먼스, 설치 미술 등을 선보이는 시각예술가이다. 그는 한국예술종합학교 조형예술과 학사를 졸업하고 미국 뉴욕 SVA (School of Visual Arts)에서 2021년에 석사과정을 마쳤다.

그는 자연과 문학작품에서 영감을 얻어 동식물의 특성과 해부학적 이미지를 재해석하여 가상의 생명체를 만들고 이를 우리가 살아가는 시대의 여러 요소를 은유하여 만들어낸 세계를 통해 메세지를 전한다. 판화라는 매체의 특성을 십분 활용하여 정교한 선으로 미학적이고 환상적인 가상의 세계를 표현하는 것이 그의 작품의 특징이다. 뉴욕의 Ethan Cohen Kube, SVA 갤러리, Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition 및 항저우의 Rear Window Gallery 등에서 진행된 단체전과 미국 마이애미의 Untitled Art Miami Beach 아트페어, 뉴욕주 킹스턴 Stone leaf retreat 레지던시에서 개최된 Upstate Art Weekend에  참여한 바 있다.
