Ji-Hye Kim South Korea, b. 1980

Ji-Hye Kim (b. Seoul, 1980) is a printmaker and artist who has lived in Dubai since 2007. With an academic background in printmaking, Ji-Hye’s work conveys the question of self-identity using metaphors from natural occurrences. Her most recent work explores the resilience of the UAE’s rocky mountains against acts of nature, such as wind and rain, that shave and carve these mountains, causing slight change to the surface, yet the mountains remain unaffected.
