Artist
Kenji Lim is a British artist based in Essex and born in Singapore. Lim studied Sculpture at the Royal College of Art, London (MA – 2017-2019); and the Ruskin School of Art, Oxford University (BFA – 1999-2002). Lim works through sculpture, video, digital collage, installation and painting. His work reflects and refracts the experience of landscape through the prisms of culture, myth, philosophy, and the metaphysical; returning the gaze of Western cultural norms through the eyes of other-than-human actors. Part archaeological, part Fraggle Rock, he navigates alternative modes of seeing and understanding the world and its inhabitants. Lim’s work is shown internationally, including recent exhibitions Spend Time Not Thinking About Tomorrow at IMT Gallery, London, Tourist at Galerie Reinthaler, Vienna, and Perishing Thirst at Quench Gallery, Margate. He is currently an Acme Work/Live Artist at High House in Purfleet, Essex.
