Published on the occasion of Kim Lim's exhibition at Camden Arts Centre, London and Mead Gallery, Warwick Arts Centre, Coventry. 'Kim Lim (1936-1997) worked in wood, steel, aluminium, bronze, fibreglass, plastic and paper, but is perhaps best known for her later meditative stone carvings evoking natural forms and rhythms. Although Lim’s work displays an affinity with minimalism, her concerns are always more with the pulse and vibrancy of organic growth and the movement and reflection of light on water. This exhibition brings together 28 works in marble, granite, slate and Portland Stone from 1980s and 90s, including two pieces Lim worked on specifically for this exhibition. The Centre’s naturally-lit galleries will emphasise the play of light and shadow created by the deeply incised sufaces of the works. A selection of prints will show the connections between Lim’s works on paper and the stone works.' - from Camden Arts Centre's website

With texts by Martin Holman, Antoni Malinowski, Mel Gooding and Julia Farrer. Includes artist biography and list of works.
