Michael Hight

Michael Hight (Born 1961) was active/lived in New Zealand.  Michael Hight is known for Painting.

Micheal Hight is a self-taught painter who has been exhibiting regularly since the late 1980s.  He has a Bachelor of Social Science and undertook extensive travel through North America, Europe and North Africa in the eighties.

He is most commonly associated with his realistic depictions of beehives in the New Zealand landscape, particularly in Central Otago and Canterbury.  More recent works have temporarily left behind his identifiable landscapes in favour of surreal dreamscapes within which a personal sense of real childhood innocence is evident.  His use of juxtaposition, ambiguous symbols and an overwhelming sense of the dark and mysterious, together create an uncertainty in these works that is as curiously haunting as it is beautiful.

Hight has an exhibition history of more than 25 years.  He continues to exhibit regularly in New Zealand and Australia. 

Highlights include inclusion in exhibitions at City Gallery, Wellington (200http://www.gowlangsfordgallery.co.nz/artists/   ...  [Displaying 1045 of 2596 characters.]  Artist bio
