Michael Ogorman Painting Called Breaking The Fourth Wall

Michael O’Gorman’s paintings are a surreal jazz riff, a series of ongoing neverending pictures that morph and merge, commingle and conjoin to create a cycle, a network of stories that never stop, always keep going, find a way to keep speaking.

There’s an illustrative quality to these pictures, a bright pop world that seeks to entertain through infinite change, attention to detail and bright colour fields. Here’s what O’Gorman has to say about his paintings:

I love to create complex, surreal oil paintings that explore notions such as anthropomorphism (giving human characteristics to non-human subjects), contrasts, and references to the artistic process. These notions are conveyed through a unique ‘merging’ style that I developed from a young age, whereby I connect neighbouring subjects in a composition by coalescing their appendages.
