GaYoung Kim, also known as GaGa or Gabong, is a handcraft artist based in Seoul, Korea. With a diverse portfolio, GaGa explores and contemplates contemporary art, creating objects and experimenting with various materials. Although she has received extensive art education, her current creations no longer carry philosophical speculation; they exist purely from an aesthetic perspective.
"Hiss... hiss... hiss..."
Beware! It's a rattlesnake, and it's rattling its tail.
But nothing can rattles me from creating. Absolutely nothing!
I can endure rejection, navigate the depths of melancholy, and persevere through despair. And yet, I emerge unscathed. Nothing has the power to rattle me. Nothing!
In addition to her role as an artisan, GaYoung also pursues a professional career as a gallery curator.

Laziness, 2020
하기 싫은 일을 미루는 게으름에서 오는 아늑함과 불편함을 시각적으로 표현했다.
설거지는 하기 싫고, 귀찮은 일을 대표한다. 그런 일을 미뤘을 때는 쿠션의 cozy함을 느낀다, 그리고 동시에 해야 할 일을 하지 않았을 때 느끼는 저항하기 힘든 불편함은 비일상적인 크기의 오브제들로 보여주고 있다. 쿠션은 다양한 소재의 fabric으로 제작된다. 린넨, 캔버스, 가죽 등이 있다. 다양한 소재는 쿠션의 편안함과는 상충하는 쌓여있는 설거지 거리의 카오스에 힘을 더해준다.
