Michael Palladino is a mixed media artist living in New York City. A graduate from Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University, he has had numerous solo and group exhibitions of his prints, paintings, sculpture, and photographs. The experimentation with various media has resulted in enhanced digital photography painted with encaustic wax, and carved wood panels, often torched and waxed. His work leans towards abstraction, and is inspired by nature. Aside from the more personal work, Palladino has collaborated with multiple domestic and international design teams on larger scale projects at major venues including hotels, restaurants, and residential spaces. He creates the work in his studios in New York and Pennsylvania.
