About Kim Go

I am an artist in the expressive, installation and performance arts.

I write because our shared cultural beliefs about loss offer far too few tools to people working with grief.

When I was very young, I thought little about impermanence. Then, my personal encounters with impermanence grew to include such challenges as: my father’s death in early childhood, a near-death experience in adolescence, divorce, fertility challenges, death of a soul mate and spouse and subsequent loss of access to step children, mugging and assault, pet loss, job loss, suicide of two close friends, and geographic resettlement.

Perhaps we have something in common… perhaps not. I have learned that the specificity of the loss does not matter as much as the condition of the heart to be open to others who are learning to be present and alive regardless of the impermanence in their story.
