As a painter and photographer Michael Wolfe draws inspiration from the landscape around his home in Castlemaine, Victoria. He has exhibited widely in Australia and internationally and his work is included in public, corporate and private collections.
“My work is both abstract and representational, classical and modern, formalist and expressionist. I’m looking to strip the landscape back to its bare bones then add flourishes of colour, texture and gesture.
Discarding the traditional foreground, middle ground and background of European landscape painting, I frequently dispense with the horizon line altogether. Flattening the picture plane, adopting an elevated or aerial viewpoint over a scrubby, irregular landscape without a focal point.
Although this aerial viewpoint shares some sensibilities with the paintings of Western Desert artists, it is also informed by cubism and other modernist traditions.”
