The 'Houses' Collection capture segments of the past & present, channeling the spirit of the people, places & things that have shaped the landscape.
The "Houses of Holy" is a body of works that began in 2011. Michaels' has explored the interaction of color, shape and multilayered texture by experimenting on the raw canvas, with the boundless possibilities of achieving a multidimensional which at once is both free form and extremely precise. The interwoven threads are the sound of the music fully captured by the attentive audience's eyes; soothing rhythms, soft flutters, and driving backbeat.
"Houses on the Horizon 2 of 2" is part of a set that was completed in the misty winter of 2023 at my studio in New York. The series portrays the renewable energy of the familiar people, sacred places and extraordinary things, some still existing and some merely hoping to be invariably seen and eagerly desiring to be fondly remembered. The powerful, the beautiful and the most revered.
