Cosmic Extensionalism
or Cosmic X”
is a new style
of Art which was originally
founded by Jack Armstrong in 1999.
Armstrong was inspired by an ethereal experience
he had with the famous gem stone known as the
Black Star Sapphire of Queensland. The stone is believed
to have magical powers. At the time he destroyed all of his
previous works. Cosmic X is a genre of modern art styles as is the
famous genres of "Cubism" by Picasso or "Pop Art” by Warhol. It was
originally founded as an organic art movement and is singular by
comparison. Cosmic X requires the artist to become the art they are
creating, by feeling no separation between the art itself. This requires
a unique state of mind to be reached, connecting to a universal
presence, which Armstrong believes exists in each being. It is this
connection that “creates the art, not the artist." Each acrylic on
canvas painting is multi-layered but also includes his personal touch.
Armstrong’s hair, ngerprints and DNA are present in all of his paintings.
What is so appealing about the creative works of Cosmic artist Jack
Armstrong, is the limited number of his paintings. There are only
100 paintings in existence. Jack also knew and worked with
Andy Warhol. In 2001, he painted “Warhol Naked.”
This incredible piece of art is a touching tribute to
his friend Andy. Jack has stated that one the
proudest moments in his life was being
dubbed “The Last Wizard of art”
by Warhol himself.

The Essence of Luxury in One Place
In Jack Armstrong's vision, there exists a universe in which human beings are made
of magic that connects them to the universal source, the same source that gives life
to the innite cosmos: the extreme use of colour, texture, luminosity, and the
scattered words that appear on the canvas allow the viewer to experience the
energy of a revolutionary work that coexists with the artist's belief in interplanetary
and multidimensional existentialism.
Armstrong becomes the art he is creating, which is expressed through him. This
requires the artist to attain a presence and a connection with the universal
energies that Jack believes reside within each individual.
