Kyle Scheurmann’s latest portrait of land reshaped by wildfires and unravelling ecosystems opens today in an exhibition at Bau-Xi Gallery in Toronto.
We’re All In This Together (June 5 to 30) offers an unflinching yet tender portrait of British Columbia’s forests in flux – where beauty and devastation coexist, and where sustained attention becomes both an artistic act and an ethical one, the gallery says.
A well known environmental artist and activist, since 2019, Scheurmann has kept studios in remote, wooded locations to document the incremental approach of climate change while simultaneously working on conservation and activism efforts.

I love these bright colored images. The first image, those little flowers must have taken forever to paint.
Very good point, the time it takes to do paintings with that level of intricacy. Thanks for that.
FABULOUS images!
Truly. And he explains so much in those images, I think.
