Description

Na Kim: Portrait

Co-published by Mediabus, Hwawon, and Propaganda
In collaboration with Emily Smith, Miji Lee, and Shin Donghyeok
Designed by Shin Donghyeok
Text by Emily King
In English and Korean

Portrait is a new book by Na Kim that is based on her ongoing ‘SET’ project (since 2015) where the artist revisits/reconstructs/reorders visual elements from her past work. 

Based on Na Kim’s digital repositories and the extensive archive hidden in her studio in Berlin, curator Miji Lee first presented a collection of sentences, keywords, and specific images found in past texts about Na Kim and her work. Graphic designer Shin Donghyeok then organised the book’s initial layout and created a system that invites the artist’s visual response while including other images from her archive. To work on this, Na Kim invited a friend, design researcher Emily Smith, to join her in gathering and scattering moments from the chronology of the artist’s ongoing project ‘SET’ as intuitively constructed collages laid out and created directly on the floor of Na Kim’s studio. These are eventually directly reproduced as the pages in this book.
