Wyatt Mills

Wyatt Mills was born in New York in 1991. After earning a BFA in painting from The School of Visual Arts, he relocated to Los Angeles and then studied painting at the Berlin Institute of Arts in Germany. He now lives and works in Downtown Los Angeles. 

​

Refined high-octane paintings synthesize and combine art history with imagery from our present, psycho-cultural setting. Oscillations between the outwardly observed and the deeply visceral collide, as lucid moments of formal stillness slip out of the security of knowledge - into vibrant delirium. Pieces of dismantled realities are tossed into an axonometric sandbox, like dice upon a table. Mills offers the viewer a preverbal technicolor mirror, combining abstract expressionism and modern notions of Americana to examine Western influence, the human condition, and interpersonal strife.
