The Berlin-based conceptual artist foregrounds the study of sound and American Sign Language (ASL), her first language, in her work. Kim began exhibiting during the early 2010s with performance- and participation-centred works like Face Opera II, presented at the Calder Foundation in New York in 2013, and a piece involving piano wires stretched across a crowded room at the 15th edition of the Send + Receive sound art festival in Winnipeg, Canada. Now her practice has expanded to include billboards and murals commissioned in the US, the UK, Canada, South Korea and Germany, considering the annotation and implications of sound phenomena and language. In 2025 Kim opened a career-to-date survey, All Day All Night, at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York; 1880 THAT, a show with her longtime collaborator Thomas Mader, at the Wellcome Collection in London; as well as the solo MAM Project 033 at Mori Art Museum in Tokyo. Kim also joined the roster of the Seoul-based Gallery Hyundai and won the Henkaku Center at Chiba Institute of Technology’s inaugural Radical Transformation Award.
