Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The visual elements of this artwork are characterized by a lush, verdant composition featuring a vibrant canopy of foliage and a pair of graceful deer standing amidst a verdant setting. The overall scene is framed by an ornate, arched structure, creating a sense of enclosure and tranquility. The subject matter depicts two deer positioned in a symmetrical arrangement, their antlers mirroring each other, creating a visually striking and almost mystical presence. The inclusion of the deer, a common symbol of nature and spirituality, suggests a deeper symbolic meaning to the work. The artistic style and technique showcase a highly detailed and naturalistic approach, with the artist's mastery of rendering the textures and colors of the foliage, the deer, and the intricate architectural elements evident throughout the composition. The historical context and the artist's intention behind this piece likely reflect a fascination with the natural world and a desire to capture the beauty and mysticism inherent in the natural landscape, creating a work that evokes a sense of tranquility and wonder. ...

Ho Jae Kim drafts mixed media paintings which eerily explore understandings of purgatory. With an interest in digesting this liminal state in a secular setting, the artist frequently depicts mundane in between spaces, such as vacant dining tables or windswept balconies. Theatrical lights unnaturally illuminate these tableaux and are framed by velvet curtains, cultivating a surreal, theatrical quality. Classical art historical references are also troubled by Jae Kim, for example, Matisse’s 1911 La Danse is reimagined in rich orange hues, with each dancer beheaded. No recognisable motif or image remains untouched. Jae Kim’s unique process also affords each piece immense symmetry, giving each scene an all too perfect, uncanny tone. With homage to the precision of painters such as Piero della Francesca of the Early Italian Renaissance, all of his paintings are originally drafted on a 3D modelling and rendering program. Finalized models are then inkjet transferred onto canvas in multiple layers, serving as underpaintings for Jae Kim to delicately embody with oil paints. Enamel and paper are also embedded within the canvas to add a sense of textural weight and to further disrupt traditional material processes. This unconventional method has developed a distinct painterly style for Jae Kim, as he continues to produce haunting and bewitching paintings. ...
