Michael Malandra | Fine Art Photography & Painting

Creations from the Inside Out

Through lens or brush, it all flows from the same place, my soul.
Creating is how I listen, how I find stillness in a noisy world.
The light, the silence, the pulse of the earth, they don’t just inspire me. They remind me who I am.

What I create isn’t about the medium or technique, it’s about connection.
Every photograph and painting carries the energy of the moment it was born from.
Not just what I saw, but what I felt.

I don’t just want you to see where I’ve been, I want you to feel something of yourself in the work.
A spark of memory, A sense of peace, A reminder that you’re part of something bigger.

Because at its best, art doesn’t just hang on a wall, it reaches and touches you.
And maybe, in the right light, it helps you remember something you didn’t know you’d forgotten.
