Teeth and Tenderness

Kim Lim, a Filipino artist, presents a tranquil world through her paintings, shaping landscapes from interwoven branches, wild grasses and vivid tones. Her work carries a quiet strength, blending delicacy with resilience. The presence of teeth in her compositions serves as a striking metaphor for maintaining gentleness despite visible fractures. Each piece reflects an underlying tension between fragility and endurance, inviting contemplation on how beauty can persist amid disruption. The contrast between soft natural elements and symbols of resistance highlights an unspoken struggle, where tenderness does not equate to weakness. Lim’s approach transforms familiar imagery into thought-provoking scenes, capturing a sense of stillness that is both comforting and unsettling. Her canvases suggest that even in a fractured space, a quiet but unyielding force remains. Until April 20. Free. Tang Contemporary Art Bangkok, 11am-7pm
