About the Item

Psychic Fallout is an original painting by Elisha Nyong. Elisha created Psychic Fallout with Oil on a 42W by 45H inches primed canvas. Psychic Fallout according to Elisha Nyong speaks about "Our mind as the trump card that can make or mar our existence. The power of the subconscious is of a cosmic dimension to those who understand how to indulge it. But as the “particles” within randomly collide and break away, the tension eventually reaches the tipping point where we no longer understand the concept of control; the implosion is inevitable. Love, hate, dreams, desires... all randomly plaguing one mind despite the calm aura we exhume, the chaos within is near constant. The piece is the third of the “Hurricanes of the Soul” series and it is a visual metaphor of the continuous fallout of mental chaos.” Shipping Procedure Ships in a well-protected tube from Nigeria This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (Issued by the Gallery) About the Artist Elisha Nyong’s surreal body of work is a terrene representation of his personal “Surrealist’s manifesto” which he’s developed throughout his time as a budding artist to date. It encapsulates the surreal practice of André Breton, and the allusions of Salvador Dalí, and is fueled by the psychoanalytic of Freud. His style is born of studies and research to better understand creativity by exploring abstract themes of an abstract world with physical consequences. ARTIST STATEMENT: Demystifying the mysteries of existentialism is the core of my art praxis; my technique rides stately on the back of free-spiritedness and countermanding superstitions and taboos of the society I was raised in. The unique themes of my visual allegories are a clarion call to seek out, and assimilate dimensions beyond the three-dimensional world... it is a letter, so long I’ve barely begun.
