Kim Gordon Low
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
Kim Gordon Low started her artistic career as an assistant to Mili Arango in San Juan, Puerto Rico (the name Mili la Concha is derived from Ms. Arango). Moving to Los Angeles Kim worked with some of the biggest designers in the city such as Mary Macdonald, Tom Beeton, Hagy Belzberg, Tichenor and Thorp, Kerry Joyce, and many more while doing her signature cement floor glazes. In 1997 Kim purchased the contents of a seashell store in Ohio off a fledgling internet garage sale site known as Ebay. Contacting her favorite designer with the news of her abundant shell collection, she was first commissioned by Kerry Joyce for a table, which helped finance the shipping of those shells. Using her knowledge and experience of listening to clients she has an uncommon ability to give them what they want. Effervescent and hilarious, Kim’s enthusiasm inspires. Her work is distinctly natural and inviting. Her work has been seen in Elle Décor, Metropolitan home, House Beautiful, LA Confidential, LA Times and German House and Garden. She has also co designed Elle Décor’s Dining By Design, and a vignet for The Verdura exhibit at Sotheby’s. Working with designers all over the city she continues to create the most outstandingly original works of art that drops jaws and shocks in its time consuming attention to detail. Her personalized shrines can be seen HERE.
Tania Henderson
_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
Tania Henderson graduated from SUNY New Paltz in 2003. Tania came to Los Angeles looking for an opportunity to explore her art and find work in a fun environment. She found Kim and helped develop the Mili La Concha studio with her ability to help Kim focus and yell at her to settle down. Tania is an accomplished artist and fine painter. Tania loves working in Los Angeles and is inspired by hipness, the invigoration of the art scene, and being away from the expectations and ‘old school’ notions of the East Coast. Tania enjoys the one on one she gets from working with Kim, working in Venice Beach in the ocean air (when she’s not wearing a gas mask from the glue fumes),and doing a variety of projects instead of the same thing everyday. Tania is Mili La
Concha’s resident muralist, boss lady of the crews, and Kim’s trusty sidekick. Kim couldn’t get through the day without her. Her paintings can be seen HERE. |
