KIM SONGHE EXHIBITION
"Heaven-HEAVEN"
Copy the URL
We will hold the latest exhibition of Chandelier Artist <KIM SONGHE>, which celebrated its 15th anniversary in 2020.
Born as a Korean resident in Japan, she grew up with some inconvenience since her childhood, and one day she jumped into her eyes as if she was showing her appearance at a sudden moment. Using toys that have lost their place as materials, we continue to produce works based on the motif of light = chandelier as a bright place where people gather.
In this exhibition, we will focus on new works created under the theme of "Heaven," a symbol of "freedom" for Kim Sonhee. Also, during the exhibition, we will recruit toys that are no longer playing from the exhibition visitors, and Kimsonhe himself will make public works in a special space in the venue using the toys placed in the box installed at the venue.
★About recruitment of toys★

The toys that made your memories will be exhibited as a limited-time work.

"The 'heaven' that I express does not mean the world after death, it is a project that I started with the hope of a world that is neither above nor below, without anger or hurt each other like heaven. Born and raised in Tokyo as a third-generation Korean resident in Japan, discrimination has been a daily routine since I became aware of it. Why don't people forgive each other? Are you trying to get rid of things different from others? I've been living with doubts since I was young. Wars and racism that will never end no matter how human progress has made. It is up to us to make this world heaven or hell. Accept and forgive each other's differences. May you have a rich heart to share your born talents with everyone and color your ideal world. "

Artist profile | Profile
KIM SONGHE (to Kimson) / chandelier artist
Kim Sonhee was born in Tokyo in 1982 as the third generation of Koreans living in Japan.
He went to Korea School until the age of 18, and then went to Oda Fashion College.
After graduating, he started working as a writer, and became independent as a chandelier artist after the chandelier work exhibited at the select shop "Loveless" in 2005 attracted attention.
Since then, he has been involved in providing works to companies and brands in Japan and overseas, spatial displays, and product design.
In 2009, he exhibited his works at the "U.S.B: Emerging Korean Artists in the World 2009" exhibition at the Hangaram Museum in Seoul, Korea, and at the SUPERFROG Gallery in San Francisco, United States, in 2016, published his first collection of works, TROPHY.
At the same time, a large exhibition "Trophy" was held at Laforet Harajuku, which was well received.
Kim's works are made by collage of stuffed animals, American Toy, Daruma, beckoning cats, and kumade. Kim's adoption of such a method, which is described as "Junk Corage," is not unrelated to Kim's origin of the third Korean resident in Japan.
The work reflects Kim's ideal for multiculturalism, which had always been forced to live as a minority.
That's why the work she creates seems to be a seemingly chastic "Junk", and the world is balanced in a strange balance.
