cymk
cmyk is a playful nod to my early days in a print shop, where the hum of offset presses and the smell of ink first merged with my curiosity for art and design. The work dances between geometry and typography—where letters, numbers, and the building blocks of color theory collide in vibrant chaos. Through overlapping forms of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black, Michael turns the rigid precision of print alignment into something human, messy, and alive. It’s both a love letter to the mechanical beauty of print and a reminder that even in perfect registration, imperfection leaves the best marks.
