Our Story
Contemplo is the artistic expression of Kye Cleator, whose journey began in the rich tapestry of South Africa’s art scene. Raised amidst vibrant storytelling and traditional crafts, Kye's upbringing instilled a profound respect for the visual and narrative power of art. His South African roots deeply influence his creative perspective, infusing his work with a unique blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty.
Relocating to Australia, Kye pursued his love for architecture and interior design, immersing himself in high-end building and construction management. This experience provided him with a deep understanding of modern architecture and design, sharpening his aesthetic sensibilities and enriching his appreciation for structural beauty and innovation.
Driven by his diverse background, Kye's work with Contemplo aims to capture the wild, untamed beauty of nature, inspired by breathtaking coastlines, pristine beaches, and panoramic mountain views. His photographs are more than visual art; they are stories captured in time, inviting viewers to explore the narrative depths of each piece.
Utilising advanced Epson technology, Contemplo guarantees that each photograph offers superior colour and detail. Crafted on archival-quality materials, these prints are designed to endure, preserving the vivid colours and intricate details that bring Kye's artistic visions to life.
With new collections slated to release throughout the year, Kye invites you to become part of this ongoing story of cultural fusion and artistic exploration. Owning a piece of Contemplo’s collection offers not just a slice of beauty, but a part of a continuing journey that celebrates and merges diverse worlds and perspectives.
