Kim uses traditional basketry techniques in innovative ways to create contemporary sculptural pieces. Sometimes these may be functional vessels, but mostly they are artworks – she loves the challenge of pushing boundaries to make original basketry forms.
Kim loves to echo structures and processes from nature in her art, from the mathematical basis for a spiral shell to the chemistry of leaf prints on pavements. Nature is often ephemeral, but she relishes trying to capture its essence in more permanent form in her work.
She often incorporates found materials in her work, both natural and recycled.
