Video: Kim Smith - A Portrait of a Shipyard Artist

This episode features abstract artist Kim Smith, whose meticulously assembled collages evoke the influence of Dada, the Bauhaus and Wiener Werkstätte movements. She works almost exclusively with vintage and antique materials to bring the feel of old Europe to her art.

“I think I’m an old soul and that’s probably why I’m attracted to all of the antique papers and old things, that aesthetic. But I use all of the antique papers in a clean and contemporary presentation. I like the juxtaposition of the two.” – Kim Smith (Building 101, Studio 2317)
