Michael Foote Cormier is a metal sculpture artist and Emmy-nominated Director of Photography. His creative life has always been about making sense of the world around him through his art.

Art AF began as a deeply personal outlet in November of 2024 after the election of Donald J. Trump. Michael turned to sculptures as a way to process the chaos and contradictions of our times and he considered his creations as Art Against Fascism and Art As Fuck.

So much of what we live through can feel so overwhelming and difficult to express in words, so sculpture gave him another language, one rooted in form, symbol, and meaning. Each piece he creates reflects the world we’re living in now: the struggles, the resilience, and the questions we all carry. And they each carry a message.

Michael’s sculptures soon grew beyond personal expression into works meant for others to engage with. His art invites people to not only witness what he feels is happening around them, but also to carry these reflections into their own lives.

Beyond his work as an artist and filmmaker, He is also a husband, father, and travel junkie who loves adventure and doing crazy shit for the hell of it. He believes creativity isn’t just about making art, it’s about how we live, how we connect, and how we make meaning in a complex world.
