Welcome to
Atelier 8.18 This project continues to be influenced by the limitations of space in Vancouver. Atelier 8.18 started in March 2021 and will feature 3 exhibitions per programming year. The home setting is the inspiration for showcasing the artwork. The name Atelier 8.18 is my address. Viewings are by appointment or during our opening and closing. To indulge at your own home, the work is showcased online and is available to be purchased and can be delivered locally or shipped beyond. I am taking the opportunity to rethink and reinvent how artwork is exhibited and accessible. Curated and exhibited in an exclusive space in my home studio. I create spaces that are a pleasure to live in. If you have visited my place before, you would know my aesthetic and style and how it lends itself to beauty and possibility. Try out a work at your home or have a consult on how to integrate new work in your home. For a consult contact me: kylabourgh@gmail.com Follow the Atelier on instagram @atelier8.18 All Artwork is available for purchase by clicking on the images. Free local delivery. Shipping charges apply based on location and size of work. |

"In these uncertain times we find ourselves in transition from one place to another, betwixt and between. In this work collections of found and salvaged paper detritus have been layered, ripped and drawn on to create a bricolage of multifaceted surfaces and ideas representative of today’s current liminal realities. The fragility of the paper materials echoes the temporal and nomadic states of flux we are in while new meaning is derived to elevate these sites of memory, documenting the present while remembering the past." -Christian Nicolay

Summer Seduction
curators notes: It was an absolute delight of being in my home this summer with the show, Summer Seduction. Bright and bold and engaging with unabashed colour and texture. These elements still remain in the space even when the work has been returned or off to new homes. This summer 2021, there was an expansion and people could visit the Atelier during some of the events that were out back. We had music, poets and performances and a lovely Finissage as a send off and end the exhibition. We were able to extend the exhibition an extra 30 days upon the request for more accessibility to the Atelier. The foundational paintings by Michael Fitzsimmons provided gorgeous larger work to fit exquisitely into smaller spaces to emanate colours like in “Blue Fugue” and texture in “Iqaliut” and the centerpiece “Departure”. Natalie Reynolds paintings are fiercely colourful and dynamic which complimented and smaller framed portraits by Kyla Bourgh and her petit portraits. A match made in synergy, pattern and tone: Crissy Arseneau’s paper sculptures resembling clouds or homes or the hybrid of both, worked together with Hillary Webb’s playful ceramics. A late addition and bridge to the next show, Heidi Sidhu’s work arrived to the Atelier in bounding and vibrant colour and energy. Atelier 8.18 Kyla Bourgh |

The pleasure of new Art alongside a few from my private collection
Atelier 8.18 presents
Close Intimate Contact
March 05- May 15
While we are limited in meeting and inviting friends and guests into our homes, I am hosting this exhibition with the longing for these times. Each work is considering how our world has slowed down. We spend more time with ourselves in our homes looking at the same spaces and walls. Our living landscape hasn’t changed as much as our internal landscape has.
I am fortunate to have these beautiful artworks in my home to delight me from March to May, with the possibility of them finding new homes to delight others. Doris MacDougall's feather ink drawings are about close looking, while Kate MacDonald tackles the collection of items in her "Debris" Series. Pilar Mehlis’ drawings and paintings long for a sense of home and belonging that we all can contend with.
The playful and seductive photograph by Tamara Adbul-Hadi is observing the interaction and the push and pull of the intimate rush between the two men wrestling in the water. Nestled beside the photograph, the equally engaging “Stranger’s Diary” by Kyla Bourgh which displays a found journal shredded and encased within a frame. Our access is restricted, yet the intimacy remains in question. The entwined lines in an embrace is depicted in Hugh Kearney’s “Work Work” from his Eno Series. They slide into each other so smoothly. Touch is necessary. Close contact is considered.
Emma Lehto’s “Off Duty Series” shows arms grasping for touch without resolve, and reflects what the world is encountering during a time where contact is elusively dangerous, yet emotionally vital for survival. This sense of longing within absence is captured in Deanna Fogstrom’s paintings of stacks and placement of empty chairs that work on remembrance of times where we entered these seats and gathered with friends for a glass of wine or cup of coffee.
The documentation of time is displayed in "Covid-19 Solitary Dining" by Cherry Archer which touches on how routine is integral to our helping us continue. In contrast, Carylann Loeppky's skulls and skull-angels are an enduring reminder of Memento Mori, that everything passes eventually.
And yet, Veronica Aimone sets the tone with humour and whimsy with “Crumpled yet still rolling” a sculptural piece that expresses how we somehow endure.
