This is a conceptual paper collage by local San Diego artist, Perry Vàsquez. Its dimensions are 21 x 52. It comes framed.
The artist has used paper cutouts to depict a palm tree. The colors used here are black and whites. The artist carefully arranges paper to create something recognizable to the viewer.
Vàsquez focuses primarily on his exploration of various iterations of palm trees. Ubiquitous in Southern California, and historically viewed as a provider of nourishment, shelter, and bounty, the trees in Vásquez’s paintings are instead framed in peculiar or dire scenarios. Many of the trees in his work are ablaze, or are actually cell towers that pose as a living palm. They are superbly painted with layers of color and detail; they have become anthropomorphized through their portraiture-style framing on the canvas and dance-like poses. less
