Kylie Millar is a Fine Arts student at the University of British Columbia Okanagan. She is currently focusing on her newfound interest in currating and interactive artwork. Her artwork is not limited to one medium but is mostly seen in photographic, sculptural, and painted works. When she is asked the question, “What is your art style?” She responds, “ I’m too young to have a style.” There is no way to keep this young artist from exploring all aspects of art and pushing boundaries in the art world. Her inspiration comes from all aspects of her life. The luck and fortune in her life has given her the ability and desire to live each day to the fullest and not waste a single moment.
