Chris O'Hoski's Hypnagogia series is a collection of paintings that explore the realm of the subconscious mind. Hypnagogia refers to the transitional state between wakefulness and sleep, where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur.
O'Hoski's paintings in this series delve into this liminal space, creating dreamlike scenarios that are both captivating and unsettling. His use of vibrant colors and distorted forms adds to the sense of disorientation, drawing the viewer into the labyrinthine world of the subconscious.
Through his Hypnagogia series, O'Hoski invites us to explore the hidden recesses of our own minds, where the rational and the irrational coexist. His paintings serve as a portal to this mysterious realm, encouraging us to confront the unknown and embrace the beauty of the subconscious.
