Anthony Miler

Miler's works on paper and paintings on canvas are saturated with rich, powdery color, refuses categorization, evoking an oneiric world featuring wide-eyed creatures, vaguely avian, sometimes marine-like, and always intriguing.The creatures do not fly or swim, but melt into their surroundings, often scattered with reeds, with a dark, formidable moon (or two). Like lyrical cyphers from the future, these paintings, airtight in conception, arresting in their wall power, entice and enchant with their curious warmth.
