Michael Sjostedt: “The Order of Chaos”
28 November 2015-2 January 2016

“The Order of Chaos” is the first series Michael Sjostedt created exclusively with materials provided by a location hosting his exhibit. All source materials, comic books from the 1970s through 1990s, are from Comics ‘n’ More’s collection.

“Comic book art is so over the top,” said Sjostedt. “But my new direction is sparse and precise. I liked the exercise of using chaotic source material to create work with fewer elements, yet maintaining the melodramatic characteristics of this medium.”
