 "...Density is a fundamental concept of spatiality in Jonathan Kim’s research based on Phenomenology. It means not only the physical properties of the material, but also different spatial tension formed by them. Also, Kim ethnic sentiment reflected is creating another density difference with the space of Feltspace. ..."http://www.feltspace.org/jonathan-kim This exhibition will feature works created during three residency programs; the Vacation Research program in University of South Australia; the British School at Rome Residency and the Sauerbier House Culture Exchange Artist in Residence program. These residencies were completed in 2019, after Kim won the Linden New Art Award at the Helpmann Academy graduate exhibition. https://www.lindenarts.org/exhibitions/linden-projects-space/jonathan-kim/ "Often using found materials, Jonathan works across painting, drawing, sculpture and installation to reconstruct spatial concepts, based on phenomenology. The focus on Gong-gan-seong rather than the physical structure itself identifies internal values through an object’s external structures." https://artsreview.com.au/jonathan-kim-encounter/ "Kim’s journey to becoming an artist is an unusual one. He was born and raised in South Korea and spent most of his 20s studying in China where he completed a Bachelor’s Degree in International Trade and Economics at Shanghai University. Jonathan’s passion for art was ignited on a 40-day tour of Europe with his wife in 2013. He migrated to Australia, and once in Adelaide decided to pursue this new passion, completing a Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Art at the University of South Australia." https://www.zillaandbrook.com.au/linden-new-art-presents-encounter-a-solo-exhibition-by-jonathan-kim/"Often using found materials, Kim works across painting, drawing, sculpture and installation to reconstruct spatial concepts, based on phenomenology.

These two art movements placed importance on the spatial concept created by things or mediums in line with the concept of phenomenology. Kim aims to explore and represent the spatial nature created by the property of materials found in everyday life during the residency in Sauerbier House.

Like his nomadic background, Jonathan’s artwork contains various cultural elements. Jonathan’s practice takes the form of painting, sculpture, and installation based on the Japanese sculptural concept of Mono-ha and the Korean painting style Dansaekhwa that rooted in Korean artist Lee Ufan’s philosophy. However, Jonathan is currently attempt to extend his practice by adopting other post-minimal ideas such as Arte Povera." www.westgallerythebarton.com.au/jonathan-kim-1 "Jonathan’s sculptural practice investigates and identifies the internal value of materials from their external state. The physical structures created using materials found in everyday life are intended for a spatial experience, via the interaction between a material and its environment by an intervention and transformation. Jonathan’s practice in Rome explored the memory and the history of found object or readymade. In the same context, Jonathan’s paintings explore the spatial concepts formed by the interaction between media. His crayon painting series emphasise the tactility and texture of media and the ethnic sentiments created using traditional Korean design and colour theory according to the idea of Dansaekhwa." guildhouse.org.au/office-space-jonathan-kim/ Former business student Jonathan Kim made the switch from business to art just five years ago and he hasn’t looked back since. Kim is currently undertaking the Helpmann Academy’s British School at Rome Residency, which he was awarded earlier this year at the Helpmann graduate exhibition along with the Linden New Art Award. Born in South Korea, Kim began his university studies there before moving to China where he completed a Bachelor of International Trade and Economy. www.adelaidereview.com.au/arts/visual-arts/artist-profile-jonathan-kim/ As we approach the June Mostra, our third exhibition of this academic year, we will be publishing a series of blogs taking a closer look at the individual practices of our seven resident artists. The fifth interview is from Jonathan Kim our Helpmann Academy Resident. britishschoolatrome.wordpress.com/2019/06/11/june-mostra-2019-meet-the-artists-jonathan-kim/ Jonathan Kim ha solo 20 anni, nato e cresciuto in Corea del Sud, ha trascorso la maggior parte della sua vita in Cina per poi trasferirsi per motivi si studio ad Adelaide e diventare australiano. Come il suo background nomade, le sue opere d’arte contengono vari elementi culturali, dal concetto scultoreo del movimento giapponese Mono-ha e lo stile di pittura coreana Dansaekhwa fino alle idee post-minimal. Per Spazi Aperti esporrà un lavoro dedicato agli impatti ambientali: “le mie opere consisteranno in dipinti (disegni) e sculture. Sceglierò uno spazio interno indipendente nell’edificio dell’Accademia. Installerò alcune delle mie sculture sul pavimento. L’esposizione farà parte di un progetto a lungo termine che mira a ripristinare l’equilibrio sensoriale delle persone fornendo un’esperienza spaziale a chi oggi è costretto a sperimentare un’esperienza visiva eccessiva”.www.piuculture.it/2019/05/spazi-aperti-arte-integrazione/ Jonathan Kim, from The Density series: Stone & Elastomeric I, 2018, elastomeric pipe insulation, copper pipe and found stone.

Kim received the Helpmann Academy’s British School at Rome Residency. Attending the British School at Rome has been a dream of Kim’s ever since he visited Rome as part of a two-week Study Tour in 2017. “When I visited the British School at Rome at that time, I swore I would go back there two years later as the recipient of the Helpmann Academy,” he says. With this dream now a reality, he will be able to develop and further refine his craft in post-minimalism with a specific studio allocation at the British School at Rome, culminating with in an exhibition in the prestigious ‘Monstra’ exhibition alongside visual artists from around the world. “The residency at Rome is essential for my next phase of research as I investigate the historical and theoretical background of the Arte Povera in the Library of British Schools and experience Italian culture. “I want to seek to present artworks that provide more spatial experiences and to bring out a balance of people's sensory experiences through them.” Kim wants to use this opportunity to give back and make society a better place. “In the future, I will learn what contributions I can make to this society or even the world as an artist, and plan and practice how to give back to society what I get from art. I think it is a moral duty rather than a grand aspiration,” he says. Helpmann Academy CEO Jane MacFarlane says Kim is a well deserving recipient of the residency and is looking forward to seeing the fruits of his residency on his return. unisa.edu.au/unisanews/2019/march/story6/ "Jonathan Kim, University of South Australia Honours graduate, received the Linden New Art Award (valued at $6,620, including $500 cash award).

Accepting this year’s prestigious Helpmann Academy British School in Rome Residency, valued at $25,000, Kim confessed (perhaps jokingly…) that ‘my parents think I’m studying business, not art’.
