Heavily influenced by his industrial, urban surroundings, Firle draws from the shapes and textural architecture of Kansas City. Within his paintings, he has always tried to create a sense of depth without placing the viewer in a recognizable landscape. Recently, he has taken this interest in spacial relationships and pushed it into a three-dimensional realm. This grouping takes Firle’s works on paper and relates them to one of his curved forms. While investigating the three-dimensional structure, he still continues to explore the formal elements of shape, line, and color on a two-dimensional surface to see how far he can push the viewer’s point of reference.
