game of telephone

The game of telephone isn't always a game. Sometimes it's just what happens. Words scatter in an order arranged by listener and speaker's intent. Lines connect following a notion coming from somewhere. But what about playing an image, or speaking a drawing, or drawing what's playing? This series of work seeks to explore the inbetweens. The mouth to the ear. The reed to the canvas. The canvas to everywhere. 

Michael Reisor

Michael Reisor was born and raised in Austin, TX. Now he lives here, too, as an adult. But he did grow up in between and lived in many different places like Oregon, California, Ireland, and Hawaii. He met lots of people, played sax, went to Reed College, worked a lot, cried a lot, laughed a lot, and surfed, too. He has a wife named Tess and three-year-old named Kai that are his whole world. He loves his parents and his family an immeasurable amount.
