About the Artwork:
“I have come to consider each of these paintings (both past and future) to be part of a unified and interconnected world. A place which has its own internal rules and history. Through depicting the behavior, abilities, and technologies of this world’s inhabitants, I have begun to describe the laws which govern their lives – laws which allow characters to bend or cheat physics in order to safely navigate a strange and often volatile realm.” – Michael Dandley
