Work

The artist is an interdisciplinary artist that produces a range of work including: installation art, painting, photography, performance, and sculpture. His work is invested in notions and concepts of material.[1] Using materials as signifiers, he subtly interrogates hierarchical and dichotomous categories, including urban and rural, public and private, real and representational, masculine and feminine, modern and contemporary. Kyle was included in Mind the Gap!,[2] a National touring exhibition. In the fall of 2012 Galleries West named Kyle one of Canada's "Who's Who of Collectable Artists".[3] Herranen has exhibited both provincially and nationally, and his art is featured in corporate, private and public collections across Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom including the Mosaic Corporation, the City of Regina, and the Dunlop Art Gallery. In 2014 he was commissioned by the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development to represent the Province of Saskatchewan for a project at Canada House in London, UK.[4][5]
