Interview with Kyle Smart
——————————————-
Who are you and where are you originally from?
My names Kyle Smart. I  spent last year living and studying in Italy on Erasmus, now I’m  finishing up at UWE in Bristol. I have done some small stuff for things  like AMMO magazine and I’ve been involved in some exhibitions in the UK  and Europe. I was born in Wales but raised up t’north.
How would you describe your work?
Well  thats always a hard question, It’s starting to take shape though. I  would describe it as contemporary ideas and concepts led by more  traditional techniques and values.
Where can people find your work online?
Best place is my website- http://www.kylesmart.co.uk/I also have a Tumblr though - http://kylesmart.tumblr.com/
What are some of your interests?
Well  I hope it goes without saying that I like to draw and paint. Film is  probably my second big love though, which is another conversation. I  want to do more travelling too.
Where do you get inspiration for your work?
It  comes from all over. For instance compositionally I love how things are  staged in theatre, or like how colour is burnt out in 60’s lomo  photography. I also do a lot of cafe sketching which gives me a sense of  action and can spark some good ideas off.
Who are some of your favourite artists?
Darren Aronofsky, Gustav Klimt, Bernie Fuchs, Ashley Wood
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m  trying to round my portfolio off for when I leave Uni, this means  revisiting some ideas and images from earlier on in the year one last  time. I have just started thinking about a series of theatre poster  though, watch this space.
Who would you most like to work for/ with?
I  would love to have some sort of residency with someone like Ashley Wood  or maybe James Jean. Not that they even do that, I still think it would  be cool. If it were a company I’m gonna go for the stock answer…  Pixar! Not that my work is remotely relevant at the moment. Looks like  too much good fun though.
Anything else you’d like to mention?
Everyone  in this group has come on so much in the last year, Its astonishing to  see peoples work develop so fast. We definitely have the next big thing  among us somewhere.Thanks for reading, Kyle
