Micallef has consistently embraced the process of print making throughout his career, including early collaborations with counter cultural publisher Pictures On Walls.

“To me, it felt similar to how people once belonged to niche music scenes or discovered illegal raves before platforms like Spotify became heavily corporatised and algorithmically controlled. It drew people from all over the country for just a few days, an anomaly within the more conservative and conventional art system we’ve now become accustomed to.

In some ways, it reminded me of how punk disrupted the established structures of the music industry: a do-it-yourself approach driven by love, care, enthusiasm, and a deliberately disorganised presentation that only added to its unconventional appeal. It felt as though everybody was included, with no hierarchy. They were attracting thousands of people to a scene that you previously thought only you and a handful of others cared about.”

- Antony Micallef

"Antony Micallef's self-portraits are convulsed by raw feeling, and in that way they transcend the ‘frivolities’ of a world entertained by selfies. But there is a deeper purpose. Engaging with the tradition of portraiture, Micallef macerates in order to reinvent and renew."
– Paul Moorhouse, Senior Curator of 20th-Century Collections and Head of Collections Displays, National Portrait Gallery, London

"I’m interested in pushing oil paint to its limits." — Antony Micallef

Experimentation with material has long been central to Antony Micallef ’s practice, particularly the question of how far traditional oil paint can be extended beyond its conventional role. Influences ranged from the photography of Irving Penn to eighteenth-century fashion and the work of designer Alexander McQueen.
Through an extended process of drying, layering, and manipulation, Micallef developed a technique in which oil paint is transformed into textile-like structures resembling lace, weave, or sculptural fabric.
