About

Iver Kim is a composer, visual artist, and intermedia artist whose work engages with themes of 'impossible dialogues' between nature, humanity, and the digital world. She works across mediums including sound, photography, painting, video, and performance, with a focus on exploring those elusive “in-between” spaces. Her work addresses the transition between memory and imagination, the blur between reality and theatrical imagination, and the boundary between painting and photography. Over the past years, during her time abroad, her interest in these 'ambiguous states' has expanded to explore the experience of the individual as an outsider or minority.

Iver Kim has exhibited and performed in cities such as Seoul, Osaka, Münster, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and more. She completed an undergraduate degree in Fine Arts at Korea National University of Arts and a master's in Music Design (Music & Technology) at Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht in the Netherlands.
