Kim Dick
Artist Statement
I am an interdisciplinary artist making work that expresses highly abstract to non-objective imagery or objects. I tend to set and test the limits of any given material in a way that questions its inherent parameters. The fragility or strength exposed in my work runs parallel to exploration of personal events whether current or through fragmented memories. The artwork is intuitive in nature and provides documentation based result.
