Collection: Novel Constellations
A collection of works by Cymon Padilla
This body of work marks the continuation of a project I started almost ten years ago - to represent the flattening of history and popular memory post-internet on the even flatter surface of the stretched canvas. By combining digital processes and collage with the centuries-old art of traditional oil painting techniques, I breath new life into old forms and tell novel stories with forgotten characters.
