Alex Fishgoyt is a thirty-something Russian-American painter, living in New York, whose oil painting reflects a surrealistic, phantasmagoric exploration of the "collective unconscious". From a "spiritual" viewpoint, his work represents a serious of meditations on consciousness of the universe. And yet, if one looks for influences, one must turn to the 20th century tradition of surrealism to find the sphere to which Alex belongs. With a beautiful and specific palette of colors, Alex uses a multi-layering technique to articulate a vision that is once highly organic and profoundly spiritual.

In fact, the essential "oneness" of everything is Fishgoyt's major theme. That theme is captured in an incessant curvilinear dynamic. Ample illusions are made to figures caught up in an endless and ongoing cycle. All this is embodied with careful architectural framing as Fishgoyt deconstructs and reconstructs the subconscious in his work (or is it his vision of the spiritual universe?).
