From an edition of 125

Size 40.64 x 50.8 cm (unframed)

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: Chromatically impossible flesh tones — magenta/cyan skin registers as phosphene-spectrum rather than observed colour; luminous halo effect around head dissolves into black void with no spatial logic; eyes cast downward in classic sleep-onset inward gaze; paint surface has textural agitation consistent with hand tremor or altered motor state; figure emerges from darkness as if assembling rather than present

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:

Oil paint on deep edged canvas
