1858 Prize for Contemporary Southern Art

2012 Finalist


Young Kim

Young Kim creates site-specific installations from salt and earth that are inherently fragile and temporal, symbolic of our own existence on earth. His artistic process entails using red clay to silkscreen photographic portraits onto meticulously arranged salt-covered surfaces. A native of Korea, Kim currently serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Art and Art History at Elon University in North Carolina.
