About Mikael Buck

Mikael (b. 1982) is a British visual artist based in Epping Forest, Essex. In a career spanning more than 20 years, Mikael's work as a photojournalist and commercial photographer has featured in hundreds of publications globally. Alongside this, Mikael has also been developing a body of personally driven work: an archive of book dummies, text, illustration, collage, digital manipulations and photography that draws upon his family’s history and a childhood spent moving frequently between Essex and Marbella, Spain. Through this work, Mikael seeks to recreate the dark humour that was the backdrop to his chaotic, fun, intense family life.
