£150Sold
Original artwork description
Signal Rating: 8/10 — Strong
Classification: Hypnagogic
This painting by Ryan Louder is part of a body of work shaped by his neurological condition — Narcolepsy with REM Intrusion Hallucinations, clinically confirmed via MSLT at Guy's Hospital, London. The work contains hypnagogic imagery — embedded secondary images, phantom figures, and forms emerging from within the scene.
Neuroaesthetic markers identified: self-luminous forms; figure-ground collapse; boundary dissolution; mask-like facial reduction; form emergence from raw ground
These markers are not deliberate artistic techniques but direct visual recordings of what REM intrusion hallucinations look like. The imagery emerges from neurological experience, not metaphor. Ryan has painted over 2,000 works, with over 1,000 originals sold. Each painting in this collection has been subjected to neuroaesthetic forensic analysis to identify and catalogue the perceptual phenomena present.
Materials used:
Charcoal and chalk on paper
