Juchul Kim<br />
South Korea<br />
A few years ago, Juchul Kim became fascinated with bridges and began to wonder about <strong>the</strong>ir function. She started to see <strong>the</strong> bridge in terms <strong>of</strong> its<br />
history, its cultural exchanges and as a means <strong>of</strong> communication.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> October <strong>of</strong> 2011, Juchul Kim spent time in Europe and New York and it was during <strong>the</strong>se visits that she observed many more bridges. She saw<br />
<strong>the</strong>m immersed in <strong>the</strong> landscape, directing <strong>the</strong> focus <strong>of</strong> her work and linking all <strong>the</strong> essential elements. When she paints bridges, she is reminded <strong>of</strong><br />
Simon and Garfunkel`s song, “Bridge Over Troubled Water”. Now, sensing <strong>the</strong> arduous journey <strong>of</strong> life in <strong>the</strong> 21 century passing below a bridge, she<br />
is inspired to try to paint a picture <strong>of</strong> it.<br />
