Artist Statement:
Miguel Cortez is a visual
artist of mexican origin and
has resided in Chicago since
the age of 8. He has studied
at the School of the Art
Instituteof Chicago, and since
1990 has dedicated himself to
painting professionally, and
exhibited his work throughout
Chicago and Mexico. His
current work reflects ideas
from the subconscious which
turn out to be very abstract
yet one can imagine the forms
to be either a close up of
something microscopic or an
areal view of an imaginary
lanscape.
