Photography helps Kevin Krag to freeze in time he's one of a kind sculptures capturing the spiritual dimension, the vulnerability and mortality of his ephemeral pieces. Using ethically sourced archival photography cotton paper integrating another organic and sensual piece to the puzzle, standing the test of time and having the least possible adverse impact on the environment.

For this body of works, Krag incorporates live and dry flowers,
vines, moss, air plants and ocean driftwood creating botanical
instruments that seem to touch on contrasting themes of vitality
and decay. He creates breathing and dying objects deeply
connected to the passing of time, stilled lives contemplating
mortality and the brevity of beauty and life.

Kevin Krag grew up surrounded by music, having a father in the
music business and an uncle musician. From very young age, he
displayed a strong predilection for music, and soon became a
passionate guitar player and an avid collector of the instrument.
In 2012, he moved to Miami, where he developed a practice that
incorporates the activities of an artist, a musician, a fetishist, and
a scientist. Working across different media, his productions
incorporate nature in a controlled and ritualistic manner, often
focusing on life and death, sound and silence, feminine and
masculine. For Krag, the guitar is a tool to create an encounter
with nature, to spark a dialogue about beauty, to reveal the
rapture of a silent music score. Pushing physical limits with the
works —by adhering paint or plants or submerging guitars
underwater — is part of a personal process that rushes spiritual
and emotional limits to discover his sense of self.
Born in 1984, Kevin Krag graduated in Business Administration
in his native city Buenos Aires, Argentina. He is based in Miami,
where he has worked extensively and developed his identity as
artist and musician.
