Art Inspired by Nature, Made with with Natural Materials.

I love Mixa’s work because when I see them I am reminded of her - her smile, her energy and her warmth. Having a Mixa piece is like having her there with you brightening your home.

What has always struck me about Mixa’s work is that it always comes from a thought through point of view. It’s never merely about painting what she sees, or what captures her imagination. It is always the result of a new journey of self-discovery whether it’s identity or perspective. 

Through her use of natural materials I always feel her biggest priority is to be in harmony with Mother Earth and to protect it in any way she can. I always feel she works very hard not to hurt it which, of course, underlines her emphasis on the environment and sustainability. 

When considering Mixa’s work one must really ‘turn on’ peripheral vision. Looking at Mixa’s work takes you way beyond the obvious making it the ultimate thought provoking experience.

What Michelle presents to all who interact with her pieces of art or two-dimensional paintings is a final product —as a testimony of a process of thought, of study with philosophical underpinnings, observation, analysis, innocence, positivity, hope and introspective discovery. As part of this multi-layered process, Michelle adds her love for nature which has led her to experiment with natural pigments, hues and palettes. The themes that she explores in her work seem to always encompass personal experience and self-discovery— yet are foregrounded with a philosophical appreciation of the past, and her past together with her curiosity to dig deeper into the complexities and paradoxes of life and existence. Michelle does not just take paint to paper or canvas.. Her art represents the true definition of poesis; the masterful and powerful capacity to create art which draws the viewer in, invites all who gaze into her wonderfully rich world to tap into profound aspects, drawing nuances suggested by what she brings together while allowing the viewer to create one’s own narratives and yet— it ever so delicately guides this experience to a place of beauty—never a place of darkness. I call her work Gesamtkunstwerk[s] or total works of beauty with each piece as testimony to a masterful artistic synthesis of intellect, spirit, emotion, wonderment and joy. This is Mixa.
