About the Artist

 My name is Mike Stachowski, and I live in West Hills, California, in the northern part of Los Angeles County. Over the years, I have attempted to work with various mediums, but I returned to metal sculptures. I often wonder what drives me to spend countless hours creating these objects. When I think back, I realize that I have been looking for something extraordinary or even magic that would lead me to believe that there is something beyond the solid, dense Newtonian reality. I finally found it when I looked at the cosmos and explored astronomy, physics, biology, and the origins of all that is. When I attempted to grasp its totality, I realized it is all ‘ONE,’ and there is no separation. I often find myself filled with beautiful awe, and no language can express it. My artwork is an attempt to express that awe.
