About

Currently living and working in Sydney, Australia.

Kyle Hoffmann is an artist working primarily with analogue photographic processes. His work is inspired by the natural world and fundamental hidden phenomena that shape our human experience. Fascinated by these mechanisms, the movements of deep time, and how they influence our perceived reality. Which is then transformed by different cultural contexts and shaped by the viewer’s personal history and experience.

Hoffmann’s work has been exhibited in Australia, United States, Bali, and the UK. His work has been collected by the National Archives in Washington DC and is held in both corporate and private collections.

Producing Platinum Palladium Prints and Fine Art Archival Pigment Prints.
