KRISTOPHER KARKLIN

Kristopher Karklin's photographic works explore the fundamental sensibilities of reality and fiction, depicting the environments of his selected experiences, as filtered through his memories.

In 2007, Kristopher Karklin graduated from the Alberta College of Art and Design with a BFA with distinction. His work has exhibited in Kyoto, Japan at the University of Arts in 2009, as well as exhibitions across Alberta. He is the recipient of several awards and scholarships including the Board of Governors in 2007, the Jason Lang Scholarship for two consecutive years, and the National In-Course Millennium Scholarship in 2005. His work has been collected by the Alberta Foundation for the Arts. Karklin currently balances a studio practice between Fort McMurray where he is exploring the culture and displacement surrounding industry "work camps" and Calgary, Alberta.
