Michael Hermesh Show at Mondo Creation

We are kicking off 2018 by sharing our gallery space with The Lloyd Gallery and Featuring 12 sketches by renowned Saskatchewan born Artist Michael Hermesh. Hermesh says “Art is successful to the degree that an emotional or spiritual dialogue has taken place with the viewer engaged in such a way as to engender participation in the work.” So we are inviting you down to participate in the work…

If you are local, please join us from 5 to 9 pm on Friday, January 26th, 2018. It will be a fabulous evening spotlighting Tight Rope Winery and introducing Barbara Ward as our event designer. Cat Watson will be at the piano.

Mondo Creation will be posting a list of weekly classes, speakers, featured artisans and monthly events for our Local Community to partake in.

For the Local Artisan’s we are providing, Studio space for yogi’s, musicians, photographers and event planners, an office space for coaches, a Gallery for featured Artists, a storefront retail corner, a kitchen for catering events up to 75 people or lunch time cooking classes. We will be offering special pricing for Local Artisans at our Gala night that you won’t want to miss!

Life Without the Ferryman by Michael Hermesh

Published January 23, 2018

Life Without the Ferryman by Michael Hermesh

Life Without the Ferryman by Michael Hermesh is one of Michael’s Boats. There are several different styles of boats that he likes to experiment with. This work is a brand new 2018 bronze release. It is a sculpture that is about 32 inches tall by 11 inches wide and 6.5 inches deep.

The job of the Ferryman is to get you and your goods, goals and Gods from one shore to the other. The guidance of a Ferryman could be confused with purpose, reason and a safe Captain. In our life ultimately we have no control over the boat, Ferryman or not.

Meaning is something we imbue into the mystery of our existence by the action of being and awareness.

We are responsible for the meaning of our own lives.

This show features some New Sculpture and Paintings by Michael Hermesh

My art concerns itself with the point of interaction between spirit and the real world. That interaction I would call the definition of narrative. The intersection of awareness information and intent.

The dramas we act out, the battles we fight, and the esthetics we see are almost purely symbolic since the present reality is always the cumulative dramatics of a world that is much deeper and fraught with history than we could ever take into consideration.

My contention is that all art is narrative, and all narrative is myth – in the non-cynical sense.
