감상주의와 키치(통속 취미에 영합하는 예술 작품)의 교차점에 위치한 미트로의 소형 작품 그룹은 대중 문화, 건축, 자연에 경의를 표하기 위한 것이다. 그의 정돈된 추상조각과 콜라주 오브제는 자연적인 것과 기계화된 것 간의 절묘한 관계를 보여주고 싶은 욕망을 대변한다.

At the intersection of sentimentalism and kitsch, Mitros’ small scale assemblages pay homage to the aesthetics of pop-culture, architecture, and nature. His arranged abstractions and collaged objects are informed by a desire to illustrate the sublime relationship between the natural and mechanized.
