Kylie Inglis

Kylie Inglis is a contemporary full time artist living in Melbourne, Australia. Using acrylic, oil and cold wax as her preferred medium - her contemporary landscapes, distinctively ethereal and atmospheric in mood, flow from a highly intuitive, self-taught process and practice.

"Painting intuitively is foundational to my process, and means I rarely approach a painting with determined foresight of what I am about to paint. Instead, painting for me is a process of discovery. My work deals with spiritual themes of human experience - exploring moments of hope, despair and desire - which is influenced by my study as a theologian. Aesthetically, my work communicates these themes often through vast unfolding space or landscape, that grounds the viewer in a simple sense of spirituality, and provides a place for ongoing dialogue. I create art for the spiritual enrichment of both myself and the viewer, reinterpreting the sacred through contemporary abstract, and creating a space for spiritual encounter.
Commonly, these conversations are rich with paradox; mystery and intimacy, humility and elevation, darkness and hope. And it is within all these knife-edge tensions and paradoxes that I intend to perpetually leave my paintings."
