Michael Farrell




Wing Man,” with a column topped by an airplane atop the box, is something of a self-portrait, rooted in the notion that a TV producer works behind the scenes helping others. It's anchored by a shovel that had belonged to his grandfather.

“During the past 15 years since I last exhibited a significant amount of this type of work, I’ve been using these old wooden boxes and objects as arenas in which to confront the complex emotions, self-judgments, remorseful thoughts, tender moments, hopes for the future and grief over a life that no longer is and yet continues and evolves into something new and unknown as long as breath remains."
