About The Artwork

“This piece is about my continued exploration of paint qualities, colors and textures derived from graffiti, abstract expressionism and surrealism. For the work’s physical elements I utilize found or repurposed materials mined from disposable culture USA. This, combined with Jungian archetypical imagery and it’s symbolic mythologies, I am interested in what each viewer uniquely brings to the piece, and how the work speaks to them individually.” This work has a direct correlation to my time spent in the 80s & 90s in NYC with the Rivington School movement and the Williamsburg Immersionists (where I was in both a pivotal figure); it is emblematic of the environmental upheaval and cultural coalescence of the era. (This work is custom framed by the Artist using up-cycled exotic hardwood from pallets obtained at his manufacturing job at the time. The pallets came from East Asian countries carrying imported materials used @ the factory in the USA. Not surrendered easily from their pallet form, filled with nails and imperfections but once pried loose into planks they rendered beautiful unknown, mysterious species, curious in unique grain patterns and color variations.)

Painter, sculptor and musician, Michael J. Zwicky was a pivotal figure on the Lower East Side of New York City in the 80’s & 90’s. He and his groups "Demo Moe" & "Scrap Metal Music" have been reviewed in the Village Voice, NYPress & Spin Magazine. Michael's work is portrayed in two recently published books: “The Rivington School: 80s New York Underground”(2021) & “The Williamsburg Avant-Garde: Experimental Music and Sound on the Brooklyn Waterfront”(2023). His recently commissioned work, the sculptural installation, "Drilt!" (2021), remains on permanent exhibition at the International Fusion Museum in Easton, PA. “My work is influenced by Graffiti, Surrealism & Expressionism, Jungian archetypes & their symbolic mythologies. I create this abstract imagery, the unforeseeable result of which speaks to each viewer with what they uniquely bring to the work.”
