Eunju Kim's art is a testament to her dedication and profound connection to the medium of pencil on paper. For over three decades, she has relentlessly explored the depths of her inner world through meticulous and repetitive pencil strokes. These strokes symbolize the quest for the energy and life force that reside deep within her. Her works, which often manifest as waves, vases, or flowers, are not mere reproductions of these forms but are the result of a labor-intensive and meditative process that imbues them with vitality and dynamism.

Eunju Kim's art transcends simple black-and-white contrasts, as the graphite pencil lines reflect and disperse light, creating a sense of volume and movement. This interplay between the stark black graphite and the white paper surface highlights the forms while celebrating the beauty of the negative space. Through her art, she conveys a universal message of persistence and the continuous search for self-affirmation. Each pencil line is a testament to her existence and a reaffirmation of her belief in the power of creation.
