Welcome, and thank you for visiting my web site.

By nature, I am independent.

As a manifest extension of that nature, I'm a photographer, a digital artist, a musician, a composer, a video artist, and a writer.

By circumstance, I am the founder and director of the FOTOSEPTIEMBRE USA-SAFOTO international photography festival,
as well as an organizer and curator for artistic and cultural events.

I have been exhibiting, publishing, performing, recording and broadcasting my visual and musical work for over three decades. In this time, I have realized that one of the least desirable aspects of being an artist, is having to describe myself with lofty statements that purportedly underscore the importance and the transcendence of my creative enterprise.

The way I see it, you either like my work or you don't.

Why and how I did what I did, or what I have to say about it, doesn't matter at all.

Thank you.

Michael Mehl
