Poetry and painting juxtaposed, text with texture, image with metaphor, allow the artforms to inform each other and offer new context. Kyle Hawke's musings on life, meaning, and purpose blend with Wade Edwards's abstract and impressionist visions to spark insight on identity, the human condition, and the opportunity inherent in each moment.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Kyle Hawke has been performing spoken word since the 1990s. Preferring to perform with musicians and painters, he founded the Voice on Canvas and Bohemian Caress reading series, both of which saw performance poetry, improvised music, and live painting concurrently on stage. He's also been active with various literary non-profit groups. Themes of identity, universality, and the moment figure significantly in Kyle's work. Working in juxtaposition with other artforms has always fascinated him, leading to many ekphrastic poems and many performances with painters and musicians. He feels that having multiple voices speak to a theme or comment on each other adds focus on what is universal, adding new context to each voice. whispers of humanity is Kyle's first collection of poetry in book form. He lives in Vancouver, BC.
