Ha Rhin Kim works across painting, drawing, installation, and moving image, developing a practice in which duration and site are held in tension, allowing states of completion to appear without resolution. Her work is grounded in tactile accumulation and spatial composition, where materials register embodied encounters with time and space rather than arriving at narrative closure.

Born in Seoul, Korea, Kim received her BFA and MFA from Hongik University and continued her studies at Pratt Institute Graduate School in New York. She has presented numerous solo and group exhibitions, as well as video screenings, across Korea, the United States, and Europe.

Kim’s recent work addresses questions of care, solidarity, and the female subject positioned as a social outsider, approaching these concerns not as personal narrative but as structural conditions. Through exhibition-based and research-driven inquiry, she completed a PhD in Fine Arts at Hongik University, articulating these questions across both artistic practice and critical research. Kim continues to expand her work by examining what persists after acts of care—where duration, spatial experience, and states of completion remain in unresolved relation.
