Milcho Silianoff 1924-2003 Mind-Body-Spirit Described by his father as his dreamer son, Milcho was an artist of diverse interests. He was an early subscriber of holistic medicine, physical exercise, organic food, and was a philosophy and classical music enthusiast. Spiritual foundations were rooted in his Eastern Orthodox Church and decades of liturgical stained glass designing required thorough examination of diverse theologies and perspectives. He remained steadfast in his belief that we are all striving to connect to a higher spirit and able to use art forms as a means of transcendence.
