HAPPENINGS

multiple disciplines layered within the work and within those details are woven several approaches to world issues.” For Merriam, ultimately it is the

spirit of the work that will live on and affect the viewer far longer than any overt political or societal statement would. “On the surface [my work] is often a lighthearted or romantic offering to the viewer because […] I want to comfort my audience rather than guilt or worry them,” he said.

“It’s the spirit rather than the politics that transcends and becomes the lasting radiant texture of art.” Merriam’s latest collection of abstract subtleties will be on display at EC Gallery Forum Shops June 10- 12. Meet the master behind the work and allow yourself to be transported into the shared dream Merriam has set up. Contact your fine art consultant to RSVP.
