Kyla Bourgh
Kyla Bourgh is a visual artist, writer, curator and educator. Bourgh’s family beginnings reach both South Asia and Scandinavia. Her work fuses her writing and visual arts practices to create artwork with a deep thread of social engagement.

She encounters and contends with the visual ambiguity of her roots, and explores this through her artistic practice. Her work also encourages insight by pushing perspectives about the topics of gender and racial inequality.
A graduate of the Master of Visual Arts program at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in 2020, Bourgh engages in a range of projects.
