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.

Untitled, 2020
4차 산업 혁명이 오고 인간의 노동력은 기계로부터 밀려난다. 그로 인해 노동에 쓰이던 시간들이 점점 여가 시간으로 바뀐다. 이러한 현상에 인간은 생존 전략을 찾지 못한다.
그 결과 인간은 변화된 사회와 시간 속에서 방황하게 된다.
일정 시간이 지나면 뒤집어지는 모래시계 속에 다수의 인간의 머리가 위치해 있다. 지름 130m의 크기로 차가운 느낌의 메탈과 유리를 소재로 모래시계를 제작한다. 잔인하지 않고 잔잔한 느낌을 나타내는 무채색을 선택했다. 혼돈을 마주하게된 인간의 모습을 제3자의 시선으로 보여준다.
