The Milo Gallery is currently exhibiting paintings by Max Miceli. The work puts as much emphasis on personal allegory as it does aesthetic appeal. The themes and imagery beckon the viewer to decipher a candy-coated mythology-an exercise of sifting through our relationship to nature and with each other. Animals commingle with industry, trees are over pruned, and people are depicted as archetypes within sugary fields of color weathered with textural scrapes and markings.
