Canadian painter Misha Hunter examines the conflict of existential thought in a material world. His scenes explore sentimental spaces and moments that deal with the never-ending search of purpose in a life that inevitably ends. Hunter paints the objects that collect us in a society that tells us that success is garnished from physically wealthy ambitions. The artist's experiences with trauma, addiction, and anxiety inform his search for connections in the unknown, finding parallels between spirituality and materiality. These links culminate at ghosts in the garden, a corner of the room, or a mundane micro-environment of a shop. His work is questioning the classic chicken and egg question, is it the objects we create that shape our environment or is it the environment that shapes our objects, and what does either have to do with the human psyche.
