The visual solutions created by Michael Filipek. In a visual and materialistic world, the design of elements in the public eye are often overlooked. I create visual solutions to combat these creative problems. Growing up in Rochester, New York, a mecca for imagery, I have been drawn to the creation of visual elements. This allure brought me to Chicago to further my education in the arts and to give myself a platform to create and design. Within these works, my focus is primarily on exhibit design and promotional layouts. My goal is to combine creative designs with practical solutions, resulting in necessary but seamless additions to their surroundings.
