Mike Glier draws and paints to explore topics of common interest. He also teaches, which he considers a happy, satisfying, and dematerialized part of his creative output. Masculine identity, desire, and violence informed much of his early work. For the last two decades, however, he has focused on the human relationship with land. “My landscape projects are propelled by a number of things, including the love of paint and abstraction, but most importantly, by a desire to do my part to help make the changes in philosophy that are required if humanity is to create a sustainable future.  By studying the land and responding to it freshly, I hope to demonstrate attachment, respect and engagement.  And if the paintings are good enough, they will find their way into public life to do their job of representing the joy of living in the world and the wonder of perceiving it, and if they succeed at this, to evoke the will to create balance within it.”
