Jin Eui Kim
Jin Eui Kim’s work explores how form, shade, and texture in ceramic art can be manipulated to transform visual perception. Using tonal bands and clay block arrangements, Jin Eui creates spatial illusions that blur the line between reality and appearance. By selectively omitting or altering surface details, Jin Eui invites viewers to experience shifting perceptions, allowing them to toggle between the real and the illusory. When observed under specific conditions – half-closed eyes, dim light, or from a distance – the illusions become more vivid. This interaction creates an immersive journey, challenging viewers to question their own perception and the boundaries of reality.
