Nikita Dulerain was born in 2003 in Vilnius with cerebral palsy, epilepsy, minor learning disability and autistic traits. The medical diagnosis was that he would never walk, talk or be able to hold a pen. Through years of incremental work and determination, Nikita, with the help of his mother and younger brother, proved the doctors wrong. In 2019 a boy who had poor use of his hands received paints and a brush, and then a miracle happened – he could finally express the unique world contained within him. The use of colour and texture in his art explodes emotion unto the canvas; intertwining fears and desires, passions and aspirations, illusion and reality. In his work, everyone sees something uniquely personal to them. It transcends the barrier between naturalistic and abstract, crystalising the most complex inner processes of human consciousness into a visual form.
