The Alice Wilds is pleased to present The Surface of a Stone is Always In Motion a suite of thirteen photographs by Kyle Seis completed over the past year.

With them, Mr. Seis continues his interest in the abstract aspects of photography, the expressive, poetic and lyrical possibilities that exist between ocular perception, optical rendering and digital intervention.

In this work, Mr. Seis engages a subject as quotidian and durable as stone to construct images exploring ways in which ephemeral conspiracies of fleeting perceptions, emotion, circumstance and the complexities of visual perception re-solidify into memory, meaning and aesthetic experience.

Kyle Seis earned his BFA from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2014 and is the recipient of a Mary L. Nohl Fellowship for Individual Artists (2014) and a Midwest Society for Photographic Education Scholarship (2014). His work has been shown in galleries and institutions such as the Milwaukee Art Museum, INOVA (Milwaukee, WI), the Museum of Wisconsin Art (West Bend, WI), and the Center for Fine Art Photography (Fort Collins, CO). In addition, Seis is the founder of Wavepool, a contemporary art blog dedicated to sharing interviews with artists who engage with the medium of photography. He also founded Chamber, a Milwaukee exhibition space he directed and operated from 2015-2017. He currently resides in  Enschede, Netherlands.
