Paulo Vinluan
Ideal Theories and Other Trivial Matters of the Heart
blanc
August 8 - August 29, 2007
ARTIST'S STATEMENT
We paint pictures in our heads. Mental notes of what we want to happen, having a vision of our future selves. Inspired by a paint-by-numbers painting I saw in a flea market, I saw a relationship between the paint-by-numbers painting and that of my own mental picture of my moving to Brooklyn last February of this year. My paintings have always been a reflection of myself in current situations that I am in. The paintings in this exhibition is a dialogue between the ideals we set ourselves to do and the reality of striving to paint that picture, by the numbers, as we it.
