Michael would like to extend a warm welcome to The Avenue Gallery in Victoria BC. This is his newest gallery as of January 2012 and you will soon find more new works available there.

The Choir

We sing in the language of our circumstance. Sharing our words, the song is a greater harmony.

This is a Choir.

Existential nihilism is balanced by a metaphysical joke so incomprehensibly profound that it brings a balance a mystery and a beauty. Sisyphus finds meaning.

There is a faith that I subscribe to; the universe is ultimately beautiful and meaningful, without that assumption I could not produce art. The basis for this belief is, primarily, an inner subjective feeling objectively, my understanding that a scientific theory, if true is beautiful and so extrapolates to the idea that a meaningless universe would be ugly and inconsistent.
