Sophia Kim Reeves is a Korean American contemporary artist working in material-based abstraction with Hanji (traditional Korean mulberry paper). Her practice investigates surface, structure, and perception through processes of accumulation, interruption, and material transformation.
Born on Jeju Island, South Korea, and based in Riverside, California, her work is shaped by diasporic experience and shifting conditions of material practice, where stability and form remain in continuous negotiation.
Reeves received her MFA in Visual Arts from Azusa Pacific University in 2025. Her recent exhibitions include the solo exhibition Light Shines Through (Heritage Gallery, 2025) and group exhibitions including Threshold (Orange County Fine Arts Association Showcase Gallery, 2026), Stations of the Cross – Raised from the Dead (Mariners Church, 2026), Waves (SOLOSHOW Gallery, 2024).
She is a juried member of the Los Angeles Art Association and the Orange County Fine Arts Association. Her work is held in private collections throughout Southern California.
