Mike Davis

Copro Gallery presents a solo exhibition by artist Mike Davis, “Ghosts of the Future “. This is Davis’ second solo show with Copro Mike will be in attendance at the opening reception and available for signing his book ‘Blind man’s Journey’.Davis renders complex paintings embedded with symbols of mortality, folly, and hubris in the style of the Netherlandish Flemish Primitives such as Bosch, Bruegel and van Eyck. His oil paintings create an alternate world where anything is possible, combining arcane personal symbols with social commentary. His work depicts a world of myth and colliding timeframes, a land “on the other side of the bridge,” but one that resonates with our own—not as memory but as a dream.
Mike Davis is a self-taught painter and In addition to painting is a musician and woodworker as well the owner of an internationally-renowned tattoo shop, Everlasting Tattoo. Born in 1961 in Jacksonville, Florida, Mike Davis currently lives and works in San Francisco.
