Ryan trautmann

Ryan’s work captures modern life’s myriad absurdities with what appears to be a playful effortlessness. But upon closer inspection, what we see is an artist confronting our tendency to segregate and compartmentalize our emotional states.

The beauty of his singular perspective is found in his seamless integration of the fear, anxiety, and isolation brought on by our pervasive existential dread with our capacity to persevere and evolve with humor, light, and empathy.
