KYLE KEARSON

Kyle Kearson is a contemporary artist born and raised in New Haven, CT.

He has a passion for cultivating important conversations through art. Motivated by the power that objects have to stir up feelings, he creates sculptures to inspire people. The majority of his artwork deals with social issues and topics that are not often expressed through dynamic three-dimensional forms. As a Black sculptor he uses his work to examine the racial histories and disparities of America, promote thought about where we are today, and to present a moment for deep reflection.
