SKY KIM: COSMIC DOWNLOADS

Tinney Contemporary / 237 Rep John Lewis Way N. April 5 - May 10th

Sky Kim

Tinney Contemporary is proud to present Cosmic Downloads, a solo exhibition by Sky Kim. The exhibition will be on display from April 5, 2025 through May 10, 2025. The opening reception will be held on April 12 from 2-9 PM in conjunction with DADA (Downtown Arts District Alliance) Second Saturday.

Sky Kim examines the relation between the cosmic and microscopic using water-based paint and crystals. Her work is central to a larger practice of meditation, informed by sacred geometry, astronomy, and quantum physics. Anemones and coral flowers, molecular and interstellar forms all bloom in transfixing mandalas of vibrant watercolor and Swarovski crystals.

Cosmic Downloads speaks to an attunement with the universe and an awareness of our place within it. The imperceptibly small is mirrored in the unimaginably large. Cosmic Downloads revels in this symmetry and locates the observer at the center.
