Artist’s Spotlight

Michael Pastorizo

Artist

“The “dreamlike” quality of Pastorizo’s paintings induces a similar altered state of consciousness in those who view them.”

The value of courage is honored in Michael Pastorizo‘s artworks, which is the result of the artist’s inventiveness, relentlessness, and determination to learn from new experiences. By drawing attention to the structure that lies beneath forms that at first glance appear to be quite simple, he hopes to establish a connection between the concrete signs that we make use of in our day-to-day lives and the conceptual ideas that are underlying those signs.

Pastorizo received his education in the field of management during his time at college.However, as time went on, fate or chance steered his career in a different direction, which ultimately led to a different outcome. In the year 2000, he started working for a local artist as a canvas maker for the business. Over the course of the subsequent 15 years, he worked as a freelance for a variety of artists. Working with a wide variety of visual artists over the course of his career gave him the opportunity to become familiar with a diverse array of approaches to the visual arts. He became skilled in a variety of mediums, including sculpture making, casting, oil painting, acrylic screen printing, and more.He shifted his focus to abstract art and eventually developed his own style of working within that medium. Michael Pastorizo has a profound commitment to his craft, and he anticipates displaying a significantly increased number of his works in upcoming exhibitions as a result of this commitment. He creates a gateway to the dream world by combining floral motifs and geometric patterns.
