Zeh Palito: Tropical Diaspora
Zéh Palito's Tropical Diaspora, like a cool inviting breeze rolling off of the ocean on a warm summer day bringing forth new perspective, love of self and others. Palito creates wildy vivid paintings that capture aspirational scenes and spaces full of life. They also depict the black figure surrounded by nature, fantasy and objects associated with leisure. The environments and the subject appear to be intune with one another. Love and Light coexisting and represented in the painterly expression and gesturing application find in the work.
Palito's vision of the future is juxtaposition with imagery from the past. The new image is one of confidence and excitement about the world and inspired by the observation of it. Familiar imaginary it is loosely painted or become a motif with some unfinished stretch markings reminiscent of murals seen in various stages of production as a work in progress due the nature of the artists working in the public eye.
The works display imaginatively constructed narratives reflecting an atmospheric world of wonder and symbolism. There is so much to consider as you explore the visual language and mythology in which these dynamisms are built up
His work has been shown throughout the world in places ranging from France, South Korea, United States, Syria, Dubai, Belgium, Chile, Spain, Germany, Poland, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, Argentina and Zambia.
