Kim Smith describes her work as a story of human emergence, moving through gross, subtle, causal, and nondual states of being. This sense of development and unfolding opens to a new beginning for her, where, as she puts it, "the difference between being human and being a Human Being," begins to shine forth. The stark, arresting imagery in dark, empty space alludes to that nascency—a soul's discovery of its own earthly form. As Ken Wilber notes, "Some of her images are truly haunting, and mix realism and etherealism in quite remarkable ways...."

We invite you to contemplate these layers of ethereal reality, in the dark and the deep of one human soul. May these illuminated depths find resonance with your own.
