Skate Park Krusty Frist Round Winner Art Olympia 2015 Competion Painting

Vito Bonanno is a CT/New York based internationally collected artist, who brings his mix of hyper-focused autism inspired aesthetic, blending street art, pop culture and dreams from his unfiltered world to come alive on the canvas. Bonanno taps into the daily emotional and social challenges of living with autism, which fuels this hybrid dream-state aesthetic, where conceptual and abstract-expressionism styles collide to form enchanting and powerful results. Image and concept driven and embedded in his personal philosophy, his art contains the essence of his life, feelings, thoughts, fears and dreams, coupled around objects or topics that "get stuck in his head", including traffic lights, graffiti, ceiling fans, pop culture, buildings, people-real and imagined, and current world events. Creating art is his therapy, love, release and emotional rescue.
