About

Midas Hart is a contemporary artist working primarily in conceptual installation and mixed media. The practice begins with a question: has humanity lost sight of what is valuable?

Before establishing an artistic practice, Hart worked behind the scenes in entertainment and fashion. Close contact with high-profile individuals and organizations offered a direct view into how money, status, publicity, and influence shape perceptions of worth.

An extended period of world travel, meditation, and introspection prompted a reassessment of those measures of success. How much of what we value depends on social constructs and the stories we attach to them?
