Description
Artist: Kim KototamaLune. Organisers: TEN ARTS, Eliane Nagata, with the participation of Galerie Da End, in collaboration with ICI Venice, Istituto Culturale Internazionale.
Born in 1976 in Hô-Chi-Minh-City (Vietnam), Kim KototamaLune lives and works in France where she has long accumulated the learning of different traditional crafts such as textile or scale modelling, before taking an interest in glasswork. A material that she spins « out of blanks » without a mould, weld after weld building a grid until a form appears. « Glass – a solid that has forgotten its liquid molecular nature, proves to be an accurate medium to express this both frail and strong dimension of life, » she explains. « Matter that borders on the immaterial in a troubling way, thus bringing the invisible out within the visible. »
