Artists - Mychael Barret
Artist’s Statement
Mychael was born in Toronto, Canada but thinks of himself as a
Londoner since arriving for what was meant to be a two week stay
twenty years ago. He has that immigrant’s zeal for his adopted
home and includes local settings that have a personal resonance
in much of his work. He is a narrative artist and anecdotal incidents
from his day-to-day life which he gathers like a magpie are at the
heart of his paintings and prints.
