About Kim Miles
I am a transgender/mild AIS intersex artist/actor/filmmaker who dislikes labels! After working in film for many years I returned to still photography / art photography eventually discovering that with simple photo editing software I could deconstruct/manipulate an image and make it completely different.
I never know the end result and this makes it very experimental/creative.It’s exciting work as there is always the possibility of arriving at something unknown/different/powerful/evocative.
I’m interested in abstraction/distortion/chaos, similar to the art of Francis Bacon. Finding truth through distortion.
Also the boldness/colour/simplicity/audacity of Andy Warhol and Pop
Art.
Also influenced by the punk ethos of imperfection/energy/breaking rules.
I prefer a rough result with visible pixels/digital markings rather than a technically pristine image.
It is, and has the appearance of painting electronically.
I recently returned to acting/performing and with changes to my body have become interested in my image via self portraits etc.
“Love it, dreamy and terrifying at the same time.” “Disturbing, thought provoking, brilliant. It seems dismal? Depressing? I don’t like looking at it. Well done.” “This picture and title really speak to how I’m feeling right now.” “Very powerful…..this is quite amazing.” “This is something of a kind!” “Oh, I love it…..I feel it.” “Dreamy and terrifying at the same time.” “Something really intriguing, almost sinister.”
