Kyle Scheurmann featured in Dark Mountain

Autumn 2025 Special Issue & Substack Contribution

This fall, accomplished Canadian landscape painter, Kyle Scheurmann, was given the distinct honor of having "Salmonberries" (outside) and "Spring Studio" (inside) grace the cover of Dark Mountain's full-colour special on uncivilized art.

The publication also includes the introduction for his recent exhibition at Bau-Xi Gallery | Dufferin, We're All In This Together, written by fellow artist Liz Toohey-Wiese. 

As stated by the Dark Mountain curatorial team:

"This spring a team of editors set out to create a collection of visual art that would act as a retrospective, a catalogue of the many genres our books have showcased since 2010: photography, illustration, graphic literature, calligraphy, painting, sculpture, land-based artworks, making, installation, ritual and performance. 

A collection of artwork that included written testimony, practice, interview, memoir and prose poem. We wanted it to be a celebration of the artists who hold out for a certain way of being in this collapsing world: true to the transformative power of creativity, to the love of the Earth, and the material of life itself."

Scheurmann was also invited to contribute to Dark Mountain's Substack through his essay How To Love A Forest, where Scheurmann "bears full-hearted witness to both the beauty and the relentless destruction of ancestral trees in a forest called Sassin. Within this paradox, his paintings summon our capacity not only to look at what is happening, but to hold out for the places we love and feel deeply connected with."
