Kanghee Kim is a New York-based South Korean artist specializing in creating dreamlike scenarios by combining ethereal pictures she takes from everyday life into her photo collages.
She uses Photoshop to combine and transform the everyday images she photographs into dreamscapes that open out into a new, invigorating world. A flowering tree glimpsed in a mirror that our eye reads as a window; a creamy desert landscape stretching, in a translucent ghost image, across the walls of a city apartment: Kim’s work, a blend of the familiar and the surreal, is both haunting and reassuring.
