Kyle Morland
1986 , South AfricanKyle Morland is an interdisciplinary artist who primarily works with sculpture, photography, and video. His artistic practice revolves around the manipulation of materials and experimentation with form and spatial relationships. Morland creates his artwork while adhering to self-imposed formal constraints, such challenges he gives himself. His sculptures demonstrate a playful engagement with proportion, balance, and dimensionality. His continuously growing archive of photographs resonates within his sculptures as he borrows and stretches industrial materials, reimagining functional forms and structures. To produce his sculptures, Morland often creates functionless forms or "tools" in his studio, which often resembles an industrial workshop. Concealing the making of his large sculptures, Morland erases visible seams that once identified the parts as separate.

Morland's work focus' on transitions, while referencing industry and the body, fragments and unity, process and play. ...
