Astrothebaptist is a mixed media artist whose work focuses on light and space. By harnessing analog color, he creates immersive light-based installations that evoke a sense of wonder and peace. His art transforms light into an exploration of time, nature, and movement to bring audiences closer to the serenity and beauty of the universe itself.

Born in New Jersey to Korean immigrants and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia, with a year in Germany, LJ Kim has always been immersed in diverse cultures and experiences. This international upbringing has greatly influenced his artistic vision and approach to storytelling. Follow him on Instagram here.
