OpenMichael Murphenko |
||||
Michael Murphenko's painting is characterised by a burgeoning sensibility to inner experience, whether disconsolate or euphoric, presenting us with an exploration of humankind's emotional palette that speaks at once of foreign, distant environments and close, intimate places of reflection. From An Open Invitation, the catalogue introduction to Open by Erik Empson |

Kundalini, 2007 - Oil on canvas, 120 x 100 cm ( 47.2 x 39.4 inches) |
||||
 |
|||||
I am interested in energy and its effects: how energy interacts with human beings; the different types of energy – emotional, potential, actual, visual, electric, nuclear, mental, social and spiritual – that flow naturally in humans, unless something is not right. From Cut Open, Michael Murphenko's discussion of the paintings in the catalogue for Open. |
