Kyle Kirkpatrick
Milton Keynes
Artist and educator working between Buckinghamshire and London.
‘’My studio-oriented practice stems from a curious fascination for materials, objects and natural landscape formations. Often playful in my use of form, materials and colour, my works explore inquisitiveness and the tacit making process. I initially navigate my curiosity through object making, or ‘thing-making’, whether virtually or physically; the two often colliding to form 3D printed objects that explore haptics and the intrinsic human need to touch. My compulsion then leads me to make, to attempt to understand what I’m seeing both materially and formally. I make, remake, layer, grow, order and then place to form visual or materials dialogues that allow me to work though my thoughts. These created objects - re-imaginations or re-workings of the familiar - are then placed on shelves or tables, which form diagrams or curiosities ready to be unpicked by the viewer.’’
