CKG is pleased to announce a long-overdue solo show for Vancouver-based photographer Kevin Boyle. We are excited to be showing new work from the Elemental series, photographed over the south coast of Iceland in 2022 and 2023. Aptly titled The Shape of Water, this show will debut five new aerial works taken while flying over the braided rivers, south of Skaftafell, in Iceland, as well as images from his home province of British Columbia.

Kevin was deeply moved by the topography in Iceland – “If you've never been to Iceland, it's an otherworldly place whose landscapes change with every corner you turn. The trip was incredibly cathartic, and these photos can't be captured unless you're flying over top, and then carefully edited and manipulated to look as I saw them, physically and emotionally”.
