'The Evolution of Man'

Andaz San Diego will be showcasing Tyson King’s latest collection, “The Evolution of Man,” on the Westside rooftop. Attendees can enjoy wine and beer, a DJ, and have the chance to meet Tyson and discuss his art. All pieces will be available for purchase and will be put on display in the hotel lobby following the event.

Tyson King is an Artist from San Diego, California. With a focus on “Optimistic Abstract Art,” he channels positive energy into his pieces in an attempt to uplift the viewer. Self-taught, he rarely mixes colors in order to display the boldness of each brushstroke. Drawing inspiration from the rhythms he encounters in everyday life he creates a conversation with the viewer to show what is beyond our visual perception. He paints not so viewers can see his art but so they can “feel it."

The "Evolution of Man" display is about stepping forward towards enlightenment. This art exhibit is an interactive way to think of evolving. You see the process go from a toddler, to child, then becoming an adult. Each mannequin took about a month to paint as the details are abundant. Most viewers take the opportunity to stand in front of the last mannequin and become the final step of evolution.
