International recognition
Chosen for the Guards Polo Club Official Yearbook 2026.
The yearbook's publisher discovered Kim's work online and reached out to feature her. Guards Polo Club, founded in 1955 by Prince Philip in Windsor Great Park, is one of the most prestigious polo clubs in the world, with King Charles III as its President.
A placement in this yearbook is not mass-market advertising. It is a prestige publication circulated within a closed, high-net-worth equestrian audience, alongside the luxury houses that sponsor the sport. For an artist, it is credibility by proximity, on a world stage.
