Artist Statement

 Michael Ward-Rosenbaum’s sculptural wall pieces deal with the absence of image, the deconstruction of the painting surface, and the psychology of art-viewing spaces. His art-making process is intuitive and influenced by repetition, chance, and a longing for resolution. The works are often shown in multiples and attempt to create immersive experiences.
