Step into a world where the truth shapeshifts and stories speak louder than facts.

In Metaphors for Liars, acclaimed Canadian artist Michael Hermesh invites us to explore the messy beauty of contradiction, the theatre of the everyday, and the uneasy role of the artist as both observer and mythmaker. Through evocative sculpture and painting, Hermesh builds symbolic realms where fiction feels truer than reality and where every figure wrestles with tension, irony, and the fragile search for meaning.

These aren’t just artworks. They’re metaphors: layered, imperfect, and unapologetically human.
