"Life is never fixed or stable. It is always volatile. It is gathered in an unpredictable way, scattered, disappearing and appearing. "
- Loren Eiseley


Kim Yeonhee received a bachelor's degree in painting, print media and textiles at the College of Fine Arts in Chicago in 2012, majored in print media at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan in 2014 and is currently a young artist working in Daejeon. San Diego to Chicago, Chicago to Michigan. After returning from the United States to Korea, she continues to seek new places, from Masan to Suncheon, from Suncheon to Seoul and from Daegu to Daejeon. And her work reflects the lives of these artists. Nomadic work, like a house in a carrier where wheels can move, exactly resembles her life.

While rejecting perpetuality in one place and constantly undergoing a change of environment, the artist naturally thought about the changes that the surrounding context had on her. And she explores the comfort that enables her to continue her life in that fluid life. There is a desire for permanently unchanging comfort, while trying to constantly learn the temporal and contemporary context at the same time. Kim Yeonhee's work is moving toward exploring and complementing each other rather than confronting these two contradictory desires. The comfortable space decorated in M2 of Lee Ungno Museum is a place where makes the artist to continue the daily life. Visitors sitting here will see footage of walking barefoot in a puddle, stabbing somewhere, walking on a flat and dirt floor.

It may be an extremely human and perhaps self-contradictory aspiration to continue to move and seek comfort at the same time. The immutability and temporality, the change and the comfort, the certainty that one can have by staying in one place, and the momentary nature of going around are mutually valuable. The life that continuously try to gain contemporaneity and respond to the contexts around the artist made her to search for lasting comfort, which was shaped as 'nomadic comfort'. Visitors will sit down in the quiet refuge of Kim Yeonhee, and think about the value of scenery and comfort that demands adaptation to the outside environment and timely response.
