Chris Silver

Based in Scotland, Chris Silver is a neurodiverse contemporary painter and spiritual empath whose practice operates at the intersection of somatic research and energetic frequency mapping. A candidate for the Master of Fine Arts (MFA), Silver’s work is a continuation of a lineage informed by his late mother’s psychiatric background and a pivotal childhood prophecy from the renowned psychic, June, who identified his ability to 'paint the unseen.'
​Silver does not paint portraits; he creates 'Neural Transmissions.'
