Michael Price
United States
Born Stoke-on-Trent, England. Since 2000, permanent resident in New York. The Timeless Nude The aim of my exploration of the nude and human figure conceived within a timeless universe is to reveal that the archetypal images carried within ourselves are just as real - or imaginary - as the physical world we inhabit. This tangible and finite world provides the inspiration for the painting process. The colour is produced from rocks and crystals including lapis lazuli, azurite and cinnabar, the natural and luminous colours of the Renaissance palette. Since 2008, pure gold leaf provides the perfect complement for the chromatic values of natural pigments. Through the poetry of Euclidean geometry, the structural foundation for a composition is established. This allows the message carried within the image to attain its maximum impact and resonance to unveil the memory of our immortality reflected from the mortal perspective.
