Where Curiosity Is Rewarded - Tell A Friend

“My current body of work focuses on psychological themes which depict innocence (either in children or adults) contrasted against a backdrop of chaos, destruction or obscure imagery which, in one way, relates to my past memories and present self awareness. I collect images from many sources: vintage photos/illustrations from children and family magazines and books, various film stills, old family photos and my own photographs as well. I spend weeks and sometimes months combining, arranging and deciphering hundreds of images which are an attempt to unravel a specific feeling I have about each piece. It’s a process of discovery which leads me to create a type of personal symbolism using familiar imagery.” - Michael Paige Glover

Enthralling work. I never knew. A fan of pieces that put your mind in a quandry, I feel it would evoke equal, yet different meaning, even to my child. I love the memories it brings forward in myself.

An interesting, but very unusual take on two very different subjects/thought processes. I would never have thought of combining the two. The imagery of chaotic symbollism evokes questions as to the background of the artist, who obviously is a mature and deep-thinking individualistic type of personality. I encourage more “thinking outside the box” types of imagery. Bravo!
