Johanna Kim

She has a lot of red giants in the back of her head.
She sometimes spits them from her retina.
They lay dormant in the back, but she can feel them moving.
They keep her there, it’s hard for her to focus on what’s in front of her.
She can only look, think and make.

It’s a little hard to hear vertical angels under the first layer of skin
as they can’t seem to wiggle their way out or in.

Here, there might be a repetition of an already existing story.
Or here might continue to show moments before the next.

Fairies, angels, ladybugs. One after the other, their existence is caught frame by frame.

Johanna Kim (b.2001) , works with storytelling, the continuity of self and the material possibilities of animation. She wants to explore the slowness of the inbetweens and how it relates to the processing, transformation and release of emotion and words. Her works are often presented through forms of video, installation and text.
