About Michael St.Mark

Conceptual / experimental multi-discipline artist, writer and photographer. Art influencer and founder of London Dada, recalling Dada's original aims and principles as envisaged by it's founder Hugo Ball. Eschews the often politically-motivated taboo on expressions of critical thought within art. Admiring Duchamp in going beyond the seemingly endless infatuation with the ' pretty picture' retinal and instead refusing to accept the standards and practices of an established corrupt art world and creatively stifling conventions that are still considered essential to attain fame and financial success: refusing to repeat himself or to develop one recognizable style to placate the commercial needs of the market.

Love on Her Mind?
Michael St.Mark 2015

 

Valentine’s Day 2015

One facet of Dada is perceiving one-ness in everything, that all things are ‘joined-up’ –
interconnected – at the deepest level of existence. Therefore, incredibly, thoughts must
also have absolute connection with images at the same time – the ‘eternal now’ time, if only we have eyes to see (above)

” The Dadaist is convinced of the overall connection between all beings and entities”
Hugo Ball, father of Dada, c. 1920
