The title of 2020-2021 St. Elmo Artist-in-residence Dawn Kim's artist talk, "If it ain't the windmill, it's the cows," comes from an old farming idiom she heard from her neighbor. It refers to the constancy of roving problems that arise in maintaining property. This lecture will cover all the failures of Kim's first year living in Texas—her cows, her windmill, her work.

Dawn Kim is an artist who examines the complexities of the everyday through (mis)recorded histories. Taking on forms of video, artist’s books, and slideshow lectures, her work attempts to make visible the systems that have been hidden, forgotten, or overlooked. Kim has participated in residencies at MacDowell, Vermont Studio Center, and ACRE. She is currently the St. Elmo Arts Fellow at the University of Texas in Austin. She received her MFA in photography from Yale University in 2020.
