Every Sunday, we turn the spotlight on some great creatives. This week, we have Kyle Hoo!
Kyle is a multimedia interdisciplinary artist and Scranton resident who was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. In 2010, he moved to Pennsylvania to attend Kutztown University where he majored in Photography and Time-Based Experimental Media.
His creative journey began in high school, where the classes Kyle took allowed him to explore various creative outlets. After receiving awards and exhibitions in local galleries in Milford, PA, he found his niche at Kutztown. He found the challenges Kutztown presented in their arts program were exciting.
Kyle’s environment plays a big role in his creativity. The right space is key to sparking ideas in his process. For example, finding an abandoned building while walking along a trail. What can be inside of it? Who can it be? Answering those questions allows him to create a cohesive story to use in his artistry. Emotionally charged imagery from past events or emotions inspires Kyle’s work, as well as other art that he studies.
To Kyle, being an LGBTQIA+ artist means a lot to him. He loves how it allows him to freely express his emotionals, as well as the feeling of finishing a project. You can find Kyle’s work on Facebook, Instagram, and on his website.
