Kim Pace
Working in a variety of media, from drawing to installation and photography, and more recently, animated film, Kim L Pace has focused on a variety of curious characters - such as hirsute women and ‘freak show’ automata - people and creatures that fall between categories, and which could be perceived as simultaneously deeply alluring and strangely repellent.

Recently, Kim was awarded the Berwick Gymnasium Art Gallery Fellowship [ACE/ English Heritage 08-09], and an artist residency at Messen Art Centre, Norway [08]. She also received the Juliet Gomperts Trust Award, 2010.

Kim has been a visiting artist & lecturer extensively; and has held Senior Lecturer posts in Research [Wimbledon] and Drawing [Camberwell] at the University of Arts, London. She currently lectures part-time at several institutions, including Norwich University College of Arts.

Kim's curatorial projects include: 'Cult Fiction' Hayward Gallery touring five venues; 'From the Doodle to the Digit' - Contemporary Drawing Conference, at Tate Britain; 'Lines of Desire', national touring exhibition (six venues); Walsall Art Gallery, 'Rebel Angels'; Universitat fur Angewandlt Kunst, Vienna, 'Going Continental'; and 'Sweet Life', a series of commissioned works, Birmingham - all with accompanying publications.

Her work was included in ‘Cult Fiction’ [2007-8], which she also conceived, for Hayward Gallery touring. She was featured in ‘Garageland’ magazine [2008]; and contributed pages to ‘Arty’ magazine [2009], produced a zine for the ‘Cult Fiction’ catalogue, and her recent bookwork is entitled ‘Nightshade’ [2010].

Kim’s work has been shown in the solo exhibition ‘Sea Change’ at Berwick Gymnasium Gallery, Northumbria [09], screened in ‘CineCity’ Film Festival and was included in group exhibitions at McLean County Art Center, USA, The Drawing Room, London and ‘Bad Animals’ & ‘Too Much is Not Enough’ at Transition Gallery, London, all 2009. In 2010, exhibitions include: ‘Visual Dialogues’ Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery; ‘Visibility Good’ at Gallery North, Newcastle, ‘Dream Home’ during the Brighton Festival and a film screening at Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne.
