Explore the Work

Two connected bodies of work: physical paintings transformed by ultraviolet light, and an earlier digital practice rooted in the same symbolic and psychedelic visual language.

Under Another Light

The same painting, seen in daylight and under ultraviolet light. UV-reactive pigments reveal different colour relationships and details under ultraviolet illumination.

About

Ryan Lynch is a visual artist working across ultraviolet-reactive acrylic painting and digital illustration. His paintings on canvas, wood, and reclaimed street-sign panels shift in colour, detail, and visual structure under different illumination. The practice engages material process, symbolism, mythology, light, signal, and transformation. Digital illustration extends the same visual language into a connected digital gallery.
