Kimerlee moved to Los Angeles in 1992 lured by theHollywood dream. She remembers telling her mother, at a young age, that she would live surrounded by mountains and horses. Finally, in 2004 a little girls dreams came true and everything shifted focus. Instead of pounding the pavements of Hollywood she focused on the pounding hooves of horses through the mountain trails of Griffith Park – her camera at her side most of the time. Shortly after the arrival of her first horse, a mare named Sequoia, she visited a place called Return To freedom, the American wild horse sanctuary.
“These two events saved my life and became my greatest teachers ever.”
With passion and dedication Kimerlee has been devoted ever since to helping save the wild horses of America.
She hopes to inspire others, not only to appreciate the natural beauty of horses, but also to take an interest in preserving their place on this land; the same land that, without them, we would never have traveled across.
“Return To Freedom means more than the mustangs – even though they alone would be enough. It is the land, it is the people and the ‘why’ they get up and do what they do. When you see and feel the energy that radiates from there, you have to get on board. You want to be part of change. It’s a magical place, and I’m proud to be part of it.”
In addition to her work with Return To Freedom, Kimerlee Curyl has donated several images to various organizations to help with the wild horse issue at hand. Her work has appeared in countless publications and advertising campaigns. Recently, she has spent a lot of time photographing an extensive number of famous stallions and many of the ranches and farms where horses live and work.
Her first solo show debuted in Los Angeles with record breaking gallery sales sparking avid interest from collectors and galleries all over the globe.
“These majestic souls are a vital part of our heritage. We have much to learn from them. To lose them would be a tragedy and an irresponsible disrespect to our past, our present and our future.”
