Metal sculptor
Kyle Reicher presents totemic works in bronze and
steel. Working with familiar forms
such as the cup & saucer, box, cane, and envelope,
Reicher creates narratives that lead the viewer to
accommodate
and assimilate ideas regarding the way these objects
and materials touch and support one another.
"
Using materials like bronze or steel takes the form
out of its original context. " says Reicher. "The
materials bring their own qualities to the work.
The warmth of oxidized steel alludes to time and
decay,
while a patina of gunmetal blue appearing hard and
cold entombs and isolates."

Reicher received his MFA from Wichita State University
and a Fulbright Fellowship to study
in Tallinn, Estonia.
