This painting depicts a compassionate moment where Jesus Christ sits among a group of Asian children, embodying a spirit of love, inclusion, and tenderness. Jesus is portrayed with gentle, open hands, his face imbued with kindness and understanding, offering a comforting presence to the children around him. The children, diverse in their appearance yet united in their expressions of joy and trust, sit attentively or playfully near Jesus. Kim’s choice to feature Asian children in this composition highlights a universal message: Jesus' love transcends cultural boundaries, embracing all people regardless of their heritage. It reminds us that all children, young and old, no matter their background, can find a place of safety and belonging in the presence of Christ.
