OK Kim

Okkim is Seoul based artist specialized in sculptural furniture. Her work utilizes traditional natural lacquer, reinterpreting it in a modern way. 

Her work began with the Merge Series furniture collection and has since expanded to include paintings, sculptures, art installations, and home goods, all inspired by aspects of my Korean heritage.
