Books by Michael Raftos

When not consistently losing a staring contest with the existential void and searching for loopholes in duality, Michael Raftos is compelled to draw arresting images. Fascinated with the beauty and horror of the world, he spends a lot of time thinking about philosophy, psychology, history, spirituality and force feeding these topics into his. He lovingly crafts intricate and surreal images using basic media: a pencil and an eraser on illustration board. This presents an interesting challenge: to create an image that is striking and interesting without the benefits of special effects in an age of advanced technology and algorithms. It also gives us something interesting to look at in case someone accidentally turns off the internet.
