Paul Paiement

介绍

Paul Paiement’s practice attempts to reconcile the differences between the organic elements of the natural world with the inorganic, synthetic aspects of culture. Paiement’s paintings co-mingle and harmonize the infinite, holistic facets of nature with the linear pragmatism of modern and contemporary architecture through a spectrum of visual languages. The artist employs the use atmospheric perspective, representation and abstraction, and overlaying techniques to expose the tangled relationship between the human view of nature with the idea of human exceptionalism.

He is currently a full-time tenured professor in the Art Department at Cypress College, in Orange County, California.
