Joining a unique representation of light and colour, Christopher Todd better known as CT Nelson creates fantastic, surreal worlds—a combination of abstract and illustrative details. Nelson is a self-taught artist born and raised in Lincoln, Nebraska, a cold college town where as a kid; he exercised his talent in drawing.
CT’s new works are expressions of natural dynamism, showing the constant motion and changes that happen around us, and catching a universal energy made out of bright colours. His paintings reflect visions of science fiction, hallucinations, and vortex motions, capturing the essence of his subjects and offering a fresh emotional perspective.
The artist aims to refrain from forcing a story to his viewers, instead he prefers that they explore and lose themselves in the piece. It’s a mesmerizing tale of understanding the intent of the artwork, based on the perception of the audience.
