Chair de peau / Living on the Edge (S.T.E.P. 1)
(2014)

https://tkkim.net

With "Chair de Peau / MEXIKO", TK Kim takes us on a journey through life, its beauty and its vicissitudes. His first painting, "Living on the Edge" (S.T.E.P. 1), takes us to the very edge of existence, when the human mechanism is still trying to be tamed, down to its smallest muscles and bones, in all the materiality and pain of the body that unfolds, still aching. A hard and touching encounter with this new world of his. In Flavia Ghisalberti's interpretation of this (re)birth, the soul is torn from its usual limbo, gradually becoming aware of its limits, and even reminds us of the fallen angels with lost wings, pulverizing on the surface of the earth. But in the end, it is life that triumphs in all its grandeur, perfectly regenerated in both its flesh and its lucidity.
