PAUL SELI

Paul Seli, PhD is a Canadian artist internationally recognized for his abstract, neo-expressionist, and cubist art.

As a Harvard-trained cognitive psychologist, Seli’s work is heavily influenced by his research on mind wandering, psychedelics, and creativity, offering a raw, introspective exploration of human consciousness.

His style is particularly inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat and Pablo Picasso, marked by bold lines, interlocking planes, and vibrant colors, who continue to shape his visual aesthetics across various mediums today.

"My art enables me to share the conscious and unconscious perspectives I’ve acquired through my scientific pursuit to understand the mind, and through my quest as an individual to explore and experience life to its fullest." – Paul Seli

Seli’s work is exhibited in both private collections and public galleries, where it continues to provoke and inspire.

Overall, these artworks maintain a vibrant mix of cubism’s fragmented reality, neo-expressionism’s emotional intensity, and surrealism’s exploration of the subconscious, creating a powerful visual commentary on human experience.
