Born in Vietnams southern commercial hub of Ho
Chi Minh City in 1978, Lim Khim Katy is the
daughter of a Cambodian father and a Vietnamese
mother, both of whom are artists. My
inheritance includes a love of colour, a
familiarity with brushes and an attraction to
shapes from the time I first became conscious of
the sun and the moon. Lim Khim Katy draws
inspirations for her paintings from real life
experiences and interactions with ordinary
people, many of who have endured hardship and
suffering. My paintings come from the feelings
generated by observing life around me, from
peoples eyes, gestures and the individual
emotions they express. I often observe emotions
expressed in the faces of people who have
suffered hardships. Whenever I experience
artists block I stop what I am doing and take
a walk by myself, alone with my thoughts in order
to observe people its the best inspiration I
can ask for in my work. Capturing a persons
eyes is what is most important for Katy. For her,
eyes are the gateway to the soul. When I look
into peoples eyes I believe I can understand
them and relate to their stories. Katys
paintings of nostalgic village homes or colorful
landscapes express both strong emotion and great
tranquility and compliment her often melancholic
portraits.
