Ricky Allman
Graduate Directory 2008
An obsession with the Apocalypse is evident in the works of painter Ricky Allman. His hauntingly striking pictures draw upon imaginary architectural worlds where Utopia and Dystopia are simultaneously being created and destroyed. In his painting ‘The Triple Trio Trifecta’, Allman produces a grey cityscape of angular structures through which he lays rainbow bursts of colors.
By juxtaposing an air of hope with one of despair, Allman forms an eerie world view. His bleak paintings have proven popular across the US, and he has already exhibited extensively in New York, LA, Boston and Miami.
