Kyle Campbell is a recent Chico State BFA graduate and sculptor. “Fortifying The American Dream” is an exploration into symbolic objects Kyle associates with his version of the American dream: constructed in a series of cast iron and brass. The show progressed through the process of leaving home with ideas and patterns, executing the designs while away, and assembling this exhibition back at home. The work was created during a three-month internship at the Kohler cast iron plant in Kohler, Wisconsin. Kyle was able to create his work with the aid of factory associates at the Kohler facility and is happy to see the culmination of this project come to 1078 Gallery.

This Friday, January 13, at 3pm, on KCHO/NSPR (91.7fm), on "Weekend Showcase," hosted by Tom Kinnee, Dolores Mitchell interviews Kyle Campbell and Michael Bishop in connection with the "Fortifying the American Dream" exhibit.  If you miss the broadcast you can listen to it later by going to www.mynspr.org.  ​
