Los Angeles, CA (January 26, 2021) - On Tuesday, 2/22/22–a day that from its date alone renders itself special–step inside a completely new realm of immersive art, created by interdisciplinary artist and muralist NYCHOS. “The Awakening,” a new unparalleled experience presented by Mirus Gallery, takes attendees on a journey of rebirth.
With over one hundred original art works from the famed artist, the show is layered and engaging, arranged into a complex narrative that exceeds a simple viewing experience. This museum-style show shares a compelling story of personal introspection through large-scale paintings, interactive artworks, projection, animation, sculptures and more, taking attendees well beyond the traditional gallery format into new all-encompassing territory. While fine art sits at the forefront of this experience, “The Awakening” incorporates new technologies, bridging the gap between the analog and digital.
With Mirus Gallery’s history in the nightclub space and the world of art, this immersive event is the beginning of a new era, unifying their expertise in pursuit of the most complete experience. Mirus Gallery is thrilled to continue their momentum in the Los Angeles art community. This marks the first solo exhibition at the new LA location, and is the result of a decade-long relationship between Mirus and NYCHOS. Drawing on their varied background in comprehensive events, every logistical detail of “The Awakening” meticulously planned, ensuring a smooth and safe experience for visitors. The event is timed and ticketing, meaning attendees will be able to immerse themselves in the world without also immersing themselves in unmanageable crowds.
Beginning on 2/22/22, take a step into a world unburdened by reality and expectations. “The Awakening” is coming.
About NYCHOS
Raised in a traditional Viennese hunting family, death and dissection were daily business for Nychos. The proximity to animal viscera had a profound effect on him psychologically and visually – he now explores the theme of dissection in his art, pushing it to playful extremes. Using delicious color-scapes and wild, fuming lines to create his characters – whether with paintbrush or spray can – Nychos works with unmatched dynamism. His command over his tools indicates a work ethic that promises only more staggering output from this artist. Nychos’ paintings and drawings have been exhibited in galleries worldwide, including six solo exhibitions (Turino, Detroit, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Paris) in the past two years alone. Nychos currently lives and works out of Rabbit Eye Movement, his studio and art space located in Vienna.
