Hello, my name is Kim.

I write about power, politics, and tech through contemporary art.

I am the Arts Policy & Civic Culture Desk Editor at Boston Art Review where I author a biweekly column, ArtWonk, the only active magazine vertical in the US dedicated to cultural policy news and analysis.

I am also a contributor with The New York Times, El País, ArtForum, e-flux (Journal, Criticism, and Art & Education), and frieze. My work has been published in Art Review, GOOD, Mousse, SFMoMa, October, and Momus where I was the Mexico City Contributing Editor (2016-2020).

My writing has been supported by a Critical Minded fellowship, an Andy Warhol Foundation Art Writers Grant, a CEC ArtsLink fellowship in Kazakhstan, and an Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) fellowship.

I’m a Zhi-Xing China Eisenhower Fellow, a German Marshall Fund Marshall Memorial Fellow, and an Atlantic Council Millennium Fellow. I also served as a Fulbright Scholar in Bogotá, and as the 2022 Tbilisi Architecture Biennial Urban Researcher in Residence.

I’m a graduate from the Programa Educativo Soma in Mexico City, and I hold a master’s from Harvard where I was a member of the Berkman Klein Center’s Harvard Student Leaders in AI, board member of the Harvard MIT Women in AI Club, a Harvard AI Safety Team (HAIST) AI Policy & Governance Fellow, and a member of the Harvard University Mexican Association of Students (HUMAS).

Residencies with Soma, CaSa Etla, Cal Arts, Saas Fee Summer, Tbilisi Architecture Biennial, and CEC ArtsLink.
