Kyle Field : There Are Two Eyes in Daetime
July 1 – August 12, 2006
Taylor De Cordoba is pleased to present There Are Two Eyes in Daetime, a new body of work by the musician and traveling artist, Kyle Field. The exhibition will run from July 1 – August 12, 2006. The gallery will host a reception for the artist on Saturday July 1 from 6-9PM.
Kyle Field’s world on paper is composed of images both familiar and utterly abstract. Organic shapes coexist with primal figures in an expanding island of lines. His palette of deep browns, rich ochres, light pinks, sky blues, and emerald greens floats within a graphic network of pen and ink. Sometimes we’ll see an amalgamation of images; abstract trees, faces, and shapes of nothingness, each emptying into the next. Everything seamlessly connects, implying a harmonious balance amidst imagery that is both elegant yet chaotic. Field’s narratives lack a beginning, middle or end. They are simultaneously ordinary and utterly fantastical. Is this a forest or is this Emerald City? Are we on the beach or within a Candyland board? It is most likely because Field himself is a wandering poet and highly talented musician (he is at the helm of the group Little Wings) that he is able to create worlds of such beauty that feel so completely of the moment. There is nothing our eyes would rather feast on than the confections created by Kyle Field.
