Rolla, BC

The 'Lost' series is meant to challenge the viewer with ideas around resource extraction, environmental degradation, and the sometimes, bleak vision of mankind’s complacent march into a future of uncertainness.

A fifth-generation farmer who lives in the South Peace, Karl is a self-taught multi-media artist. His current explorations include large metal sculptures and mixed media, scavenging scraps and materials that surround his farm and community, an area currently being enveloped by the oil and gas industry. Karl applies his artistic talent to protest against the environmental issues that plague his farm, his community, and his personal psyche.

Lost Adrift is meant to challenge the viewer with ideas around resource extraction, environmental degradation, and the sometimes, bleak vision of mankind’s complacent march into a future of uncertainness.
