Chelsea Kim

Chelsea Kim (b. 1995, Seoul, South Korea) has a background in design and began her career as a graphic designer. Shifting her focus to technology-driven visuals, she now explores how light and generative imagery can act as active agents to shape and redefine spaces. Her installations and digital artworks aim to encourage interaction and dialogue with diverse audiences.

Chelsea Kim’s work is driven by her curiosity about the complex relationship between humans and their surroundings. She constantly reflects on the factors that shape us into the individuals we are today and explores the multifaceted relationship between our environment and our personal development, believing that a deeper look into this fundamental question leads to a profound understanding of the human experience.
