Kim Hopson is an artist based in Brooklyn, NY.
Kim explores themes of motherhood, identity and disability. Experiencing life with a limb difference has given her a unique perspective that is reflected in her multidisciplinary artwork. Her intention is to create dialogue around these topics in order to spark a larger conversation.
Hopson has exhibited her work both nationally and internationally. Notable group exhibitions in New York City include the 19th Annual Small Works Show at 440 Gallery, Labor at Spoke the Hub, Time/Space at Compère Collective, and First Come, First Hung at B Dry Goods. Additionally, Hopson’s work has been selected for the Kyoto Shibori Museum in Japan as part of their On Motherhood exhibition curated by Ongoing Conversation, as well as the virtual show Cut, Torn & Mended at Spilt Milk Gallery in Edinburgh, Scotland. Her inaugural solo exhibition, Sweater Weather, was presented at Spoke the Hub in January of 2023. Further, Hopson has been featured in numerous publications including New Visionary and Women United Art Magazine.
Hopson received her BFA from Texas State-San Marcos, and her M.Ed from the University of Houston with a concentration in Museum Education. She is a founding member of The Mother Creatrix Collective, a cohort of artist mothers in NYC. Currently she is an artist in The Canopy Program 2023-2024 through the NYC Crit Club.
