A Windblown Lullaby by Celeste Kim

Celeste is an expressive and intuitive artist, and her practice is a poetic dance of colours and characters that unveils multiple layers of emotions. Her paintings often emerge as extensions of my poems, where the rhythm of words transforms into dynamic visual movement. Through a whimsical, introspective atmosphere, she seeks to portray the subtle beauty of emotions inspired by nature—hoping to stir deep, personal responses in those who engage with my work.

Her work explores the profound symbolism of flowers through abstract expression. To her, each flower represents a soul—unique, fleeting, and vibrant. Much like life itself, a flower flourishes for a brief moment, dancing freely in its bloom before fading.

Celeste's paintings are a meditation on that delicate yet powerful journey: the grace of becoming, the freedom in being, and the quiet dignity of letting go. Through bold colour, fluid form, and movement, her aim is to capture not just the image of a flower, but its essence—its joy, vulnerability, and silent resilience.

Celeste graduated from OCAD University’s Fine Art and Communication Design program, where she cultivated a multidisciplinary approach and a strong foundation in visual storytelling.
