Kyle Hobratschk is a painter, furniture maker and intaglio printmaker. His engagement with Corsicana began in 2012, when he purchased and began preserving the decommissioned 1890s Odd Fellows Lodge to establish studio space and a wood shop under the name 100 West. Kyle developed the international residency at 100 West in 2015 with support from a small collective of artists and writers, and opened its nonprofit, the Corsicana Artist and Writer Residency in 2018, which has expanded from the 100 West building into a collection of historic sites and collaborative programming.
In his Corsicana studio Kyle pursues printmaking and drafting practices in combination with woodwork across the street on 100W’s ground floor. In 2020 he opened Anteroom, a window-front exhibition space in front of his studio to disseminate residents’ work and fine craftsmanship.
