Between Two WorldsOil on board.A painting that exists exactly where its title suggests - neither fully here nor fully there. The horizon line dissolves. Sky and sea negotiate a boundary that refuses to hold. This liminal space is one Ryan Louder returns to often, because it is where his waking visions most frequently arrive: at the edge between sleep and consciousness, where the ordinary world softens and something else begins to show through.Painted in oil on board with a directness that preserves the immediacy of the original vision.Ryan Louder is a London-based painter with a clinically verified neurological condition - narcolepsy with non-REM intrusion - that causes waking dream states in which vivid, fully-formed visions are experienced while conscious. These paintings are not imagined; they are observed and recorded in real time as each vision unfolds. Every work carries a provenance that is medically documented and historically rare: the direct visual testimony of a dreaming, waking mind.Original oil painting. One of a kind. Certificate of authenticity included.These are not hand-signed versions and come direct from Ryan Louder's preferred printer.
