Nicholas Moenich’s work finds inspiration from art history, mythology, music and science fiction.
Moenich’s paintings and drawings create psychological spaces through a complex and personal formal language
that is situated between figuration and abstraction. His work is built upon dynamic structural approach to drawing
with black color pencil on paper. A world of unique forms emerge and transport the viewer into newly discovered visual territory.
