Kim Dorland pushes the boundaries of representation through an exploration of memory, material, nostalgia, identity and place. Drawing heavily from the history and language of painting, the loose yet identifiable scenes are interjected with areas of heavy abstract impasto. His refusal to remain faithful to one medium or approach plays into the symbiotic nature of his work. He has exhibited globally, including shows in Milan, London, New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. His work is featured in the Contemporary Art Foundation in Japan, The Sander Collection in Berlin, Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal, Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, Glenbow Museum in Calgary, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, Art Gallery of Alberta, the Audain Art Museum, and numerous important private collections.
