Cryptik

The framing option for this RUN includes a 1 inch black wood frame with UV-glass, foam core backing and ready to hang hardware.

"This print is based on a painting that I did in 2014, as part of the 'Mantradala' Series - exploring the connection between art and meditation. For this print, I really wanted to capture a sense of depth, which is something I'm constantly trying to achieve with my work. I've always been fascinated by optical illusions and color theory, so this is really the beginning of that exploration." - Cryptik

Cryptik creates from a palette of wonder, where all science, math, and true art spring from equal mystery. His is a clear-eyed art practice of more questions asked than answered. The Southern Californian creative’s intricate, almost trance-inducing works—be they on mammoth walls, slap stickers, or hanging in galleries—find voice in images of spiritual universality. By his hand, Eastern philosophical thought and mantras hypnotically merge with the black letter bombing of cholo writing. The ancient and the sacred marry in a modern quest—through art—for conscious awakening and awareness. - Jamie Maleszka (Mass Appeal)
