Mike Reesé is equal parts artist and storyteller. He uses his practice as a way to tell tales of pain, joy, tension and fantasy. Born and raised in Los Angeles, the thick applications of paint and cultural signifiers he uses is partly inspired by his own experiences, while purposefully left shrouded to leave an air of ambiguity for the viewer to piece together for themselves. As the art director of The OpM Company and co-founder of DREAMHAUS LA, Reesé, alongside fellow artist Nikkolos Mohammed, provide internships and creative workshops for youth of all ages to spark collaborations within the community, while empowering the unique expression native to each individual.
