Seoul Fine Art Artist | Earth Science
The Korea Fine Art Grand Exhibition, The Korea Woman Art Exhibition, The Korea Fine Art Recommended and Invited Artist 2025
Sunghae Kim is a Seoul-based artist who creates abstract paintings inspired by the universe and our inner worlds. Her work explores cosmic forces—like stars, black holes, and nebulae—and reflects on how they mirror the emotions, memories, and questions we carry within us.
Blending science with imagination, she uses color, texture, and movement to express creation, change, and healing. Each piece invites the viewer to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with themselves and with the quiet wonder of the universe.

Is the space untouched by light still a part of existence?
