① Artwork:
Moto-Tunel Pino-Palmera
In this painting, a moonlit night is pierced by a screaming yellow headlight, cast forward into darkness from the eye of a seemingly animate motorcycle. Pine branches wave overhead as palms shimmer and shake below.
Michael Gac Levin's work evokes the mystery and intensity of childhood. At the core of the artist's work is a lighthearted, diaristic drawing practice guided by repetition and humor. Levin rides a wobbly line down into memory to find images that speak both to present predicaments and an uncertain future.
