Based on original paintings from 2021 featuring Minyoung Kim's recurring mischievous feline protagonist, these jacquard-woven soft tapestries are available in editions of 100 + 5 APs each.

These special editions draw parallels between the artist’s atypical choice to paint and display her artworks on unstretched canvas and textile’s unbound and versatile materiality, this special release presents an opportunity to collect and experience Kim's work in a myriad of ways. The high-quality machine weaving technique honours Kim’s refined painterly gestures and attention to detail, whilst the 100% cotton textile has a soft handle and generous size; ideal as eye-catching wall hangings, or for use as cosy blankets or bed throws.

Minyoung Kim is a London-based South Korean artist who creates fictions depicting everyday scenarios imbued with animated surrealism and dark humour. Featuring recurring characters such as black cats, snakes, mermaids, fish and anthropomorphic food items, Kim’s imaginary fables take place in domestic spaces as well as moonlit landscapes and oceans. Though seemingly safe and idyllic, mystery and danger lurk around the corner, as depicted by shadows cast by hand-held knives, slithering snakes, and strange mythological creatures and rituals. Kim’s self-proclaimed “creepy-cute” scenes evoke laughter with “bizarre, eerie, mysterious feelings” as a form of visual self-reflection and expression of her innermost thoughts and anxieties.
