The sublime hyper-realistic paintings of gleaming water drops of Kim Tschang-Yeul

Kim Tschang-Yeul (24 December 1929 – 5 January 2021), a renowned South Korean artist, is celebrated for his hyper-realistic paintings of water droplets. His work, which spans nearly five decades, captures the delicate beauty and transient nature of water. Inspired by a water-soaked canvas in his studio, Kim began painting water drops in 1972 after relocating to France. His meticulous technique involves creating glistening, plump droplets that appear almost tangible, reflecting his deep connection to Taoist principles and Zen Buddhism. Each droplet is a showcase of his patience and dedication, embodying a sense of purity and tranquility.

Kim’s paintings are more than just realistic depictions; they are philosophical explorations of the essence of water. His work invites us to contemplate the deeper meanings of existence and the interconnectedness of all things. By focusing on a single motif, Kim achieved a profound level of artistic expression, transforming simple water drops into powerful symbols of life and renewal. His legacy continues to inspire and captivate art enthusiasts around the world.
