As it is (2020) Original Oil Painting by Aylee Kim

Artwork Statement-Light series

This painting reflects the artist’s exploration of how nature can be both seen and felt, capturing plant-like forms through layered, fluid brushstrokes that dissolve into one another. Cool tones of blue, green, and violet create a shifting atmosphere where figuration and abstraction meet. The forms are not fixed; they appear refracted, as though glimpsed through water or memory, embodying the transient beauty of perception itself.

Yet beyond its formal qualities, the work invites a philosophical reflection on continuity and renewal. The plants, though delicate and ephemeral, seem to breathe with resilience, reminding viewers that life persists in cycles far greater than the moment of observation. In this sense, the painting becomes more than an image—it becomes a meditation on permanence within impermanence.
