Kim Chasen has been a resident of Palm Springs since 1989 and a professional artist for 18 years. She co-owned Dezart One Gallery from 2001 to 2011.

 

In all of her work, Kim creates her own sense of unique color and sensuous texture. Her objectives and methods are relatively simple, with a conscious connection between the horizontal and vertical. Lying just beneath the surface, the paintings project a double life without compromising their integrity as pure abstraction. Kim has the innate ability to coax a feeling of strength and vitality from a few well chosen colors.

 

“My art represents the way I desire to live my life..... Simple and uncomplicated yet bold and exciting. It does, however, require a lot from the viewer…a willingness to travel through the many layers.”

 

Kim's work has been accepted in the 2013 and 2014 juried Artists Council Exhibition (ACE) at the Palm Springs Art Museum.  She currently shows her work at Studio D in Palm Springs and Joshua Tree Art Gallery (JTAG) in Joshua Tree.
