Kidows Kim
Bio
Kidows Kim was born in South Korea in a satellite city. After studying graphic design and mime and obtaining a diploma in dance at the CNDC in Angers, he pursued his research at ICI-CCN Montpellier master's program from 2018 to 2020.
He is interested in "Monstrarcheology", that is to say the method of excavating an organic form consisting of unfinished microscopic transformations and a process of irrationally collecting underground imagery.
His creations compose an intimate cosmogony in the form of a "dictionary of fantastical creatures". He recently unveiled the first chapter, a strangely monstrous solo called FUNKENSTEIN (2021). He is currently working on the second, CUTTING MUSHROOMS (2023).
At the same time, he develops a series of timely and ephemeral performances around his obsession for manga.
