These are my tools for silversmithing. Some are selfmade. It took some time to realize, which ones I really need for my work.

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.
