About Erick Kim : Erick Kim was born in South Korea in 1975. His father, being a woodworking artisan, constantly exposed him to artistic creativity throughout his adolescence. In 1993, he immigrated to the United States at the age of 18 and soon began working as a jeweler in downtown San Francisco in 1995. From there he began undertaking the difficult process of becoming a master. During this process, he has produced many beautiful products, but as his middle years approach him, he has acquired a newfound desire to make pieces more personal and reflective of his own thoughts, beliefs, and emotions.
STATEMENT OF ART:
I have always been one to be inspired by the wonders of creation. whether it be the intricate looking of the living world, or the ground movements of celestial bodies, I found fascination on meaning in them all, The 2010'S was been a decade of change that shock the lives of people world wide and like many other people. Art is Duo..
