Kimble A. Bromley
Artist Kimble A. Bromley’s (American, b. 1956) paintings are inspired by the true 19th-century account of a large sperm whale that attacked and sank the whaling ship Essex in 1820, and Herman Melville's Moby-Dick (1851), inspired by this remarkable event. Bromley’s revealing, abstract paintings explore many of the common themes present in Melville’s classic novel as the artist relates these themes to experiences in their own life; themes such as alienation, unpredictability, and the nature of existence. Through his paintings, Bromley emotionally connects the audience to these common themes and reminds us how Melville’s work is relevant for a modern audience. Bromley is a Professor Art at North Dakota State University in Fargo, teaching painting, drawing, and art history.
