"Anonymous Feet” is a self-portrait with an anonymous body in its place. In the early stages of her work, she photographs the body with a camera, eliminating the person’s distinctiveness and subjectivity, and transferring the resulting ‘strange lump’ to the canvas. On a low-chroma and overcast background, the body shines out more, adding a private atmosphere through a simplified indoor space. The artist concentrates on the terms ‘uncertain’ and ‘moment’, capturing and expressing the ambiguous point where the boundary becomes unclear. Her works contain numerous paintings of bodily parts, which made her, who felt herself to be the closest being, question the boundaries between the things outside of her and the things surrounding her.

Chansong Kim focuses on 'moment', the finding of fleeting emotions and insignificant experiences in our daily life. She majored in Fine Arts at Kookmin University and has continued to paint with a concentration on borders. She discovered that she was unfamiliar with a photograph in which only parts of her body were captured by mistake, and she studied the boundaries that separate her from what is outside of her body. In addition, she expressed the adaptation, conflict, and tension of a new existence in an unfamiliar place through the “Garden Series,” which was inspired by the narrative of Paris's free and beautiful gardens and plants during her 2015 year-long stay there. Chansong Kim, who is captivated by the uncertainty of painting, indicates the direction of future works, which she considers to be a balance between an interest in the subject's integrity and the material's physical properties.
