Sharon Kyle is a multidisciplinary artist best known for her unique use of texture and materials. Sharon often incorporates found ordinary objects like rusted metal, wood, paper and cloth, alongside industrial materials such as concrete, asphalt and insulation foam.Sharon’s work transforms old, rusted, discarded materials into elegant but provocative statements on aging, gender, and cultural values.
In this conversation, Sharon Kyle discusses how her early experiences in real estate and construction influenced her choice of materials, how she made the plunge to return to college in her early 30s, and how she supplemented her early art practice with sales positions working with educational materials.
Sharon's infectious laugh and candid discussion of aging make this a particularly engaging conversation.
