Hi! my name is Young-I Kim and I live in Hildesheim. I am orginal from South Korea but I live since 2002 in Germany. I studied metaldesign at the HAWK Hildesheim and graduated 2009.
My work’s title is “Characterized Vessels”.
In this work I have made vessels with which I show the characters of people.
I have chosen people whom I care for and who are dear to me.
It was important for me that I do not only lay emphasis on these persons’ outward appearances but their habits, peculiarities, manners of speaking and expressions as well as their facial expressions and postures, from which a person’s character can be more immediately inferred. These considerations have helped me to distinguish between the different character profiles. In order to give still more sense and meaning to the whole, I have used colour by means of enamelling technique.

Dear Young-I, it is lovely to hear you describe your work. Your vessels do reflect in great subtlety and sensitivity ‘characters’ and come across with great warmth. The surfaces of the enamel also look extraordinary. Please tell us more about your work and processes, I am very interested.
