Born in 1975 in Los Angeles, where he still works, Mike Stilkey depicts a melancholic and at times whimsical cast of characters inhabiting ambiguous spaces and narratives of fantasy and fairy tale. A lingering sense of loss and longing draws the viewer into the images' introspective thrall with a mixture of capricious poetry, wit, and mystery.
