FEATURING | LYLEXOX

JENNIFER KOSTUIK GALLERY
YALETOWN VANCOUVER, 2020

Vancouver-based artist LyleXOX creates avant garde portraits using surprising combinations of thrown-away objects.

Sculpting his own face and torso, the artist transforms into fictional characters that provoke viewers to ponder the connection between mundane things, self-identity and consumerism.

“I have become totally obsessed with the stories that are embedded in the DNA of these found items, found objects and recycled garbage.”
