Kim In is an artist known for his innovative use of everyday imagery, which he transforms through repetitive patterns. His creative process involves layering primary colors and white on a base layer, allowing the subject to emerge through stacked colors. This unconventional method breaks away from traditional painting techniques, creating a unique sense of depth without traditional perspective while preserving the flatness of the canvas. Kim's works often incorporate popular characters like Atom and Superman, drawing from his personal collection of toys and his identity as a ‘kidult.’ His art challenges conventional compositional structures, offering viewers a fresh perspective. With exhibitions spanning Korea and internationally, Kim's work is housed in prestigious collections, including the Saatchi Gallery in London and the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul.
