\'I Can See Tomorrow\'
by CristabelChristo
Original paintingChristo takes unconventional to a new level with art that depicts a seemingly simplistic surface, but goes further to project images that are both disturbing and thought-provoking. By taking experiences and emotions from the past and placing them on canvas and other mediums, Christo brings surreal dramas to life. This art examines beautiful visions of the darker side, oddities and pictures of confused mental states.Thereis a strange aura surrounding this artist, an almost impenetrable wallthat so obscures it is impossible to differentiate fact fromfiction. This painter seems lost in a world of their own, and the number offollowers peering into this world is growing steadily. Only collectorsof this art can truly get close to understanding this incredible artist.

Christo\'s work is best described as Outsider Art, or Art Brut, a labelcreated by French artist Jean Dubuffet to describe art created outsidethe boundaries of official culture; Dubuffet focused particularly on artby insane asylum inmates and this is a subject that pre-occupies Christo. This art illustrates extreme mental states, unconventionalideas, and elaborate fantasy worlds. For many reasons, Christo prefers toremain outside the \"art world\" mainstream.

Christo talks of being inspired to becomean artist after coming across the work, \"Rendezvous du Dimanche 6Fevrier 1916\", by Duchamp. It consisted of four postcards fittedtogether implying a message but without actual meaning, which Duchamppresented to his neighbors Walter and Louise Arensberg. \"I don\'t particularly feel the need to be understood, but I do have a strong compulsion to communicate\"- C.C.Size: approx 160mm x 130mm.
