About the Item
An illusion. This seemingly self-explanatory title carries weighted depth. The background of this painting, “MATRIX” is an abstract representation of 1999’s The Matrix. The movie's protagonist discovers that his reality isn't real. Instead, the world is a vast orchestrated simulation of AI that harvests humans for their energy. ETTE thought to herself, "am I in control of my life? Or is my life in control of me?" Embodied on canvas as the playstation controller buttons, lies the answer to the question some dare not ask: "am I the player of the game, or does the game exist to play me?"

ETTE
ETTE is a shamanistic artist using paint to bring energy into the physical form. The name ETTE is derived from a nickname her grandmother gave her as a child, Taylorette. Her grandmother was an international award winning photographer, published illustrator, and successful artist. She unexpectedly passed in November of 2017, two weeks after Taylor moved to New York in pursuit of becoming an artist. It is believed that all of her artistic abilities live on within ETTE. To attest to this statement, it should be known that Taylor grew up right handed, but now paints exclusively with her left. Her grandmother’s dominant hand.

The Vanishing Act
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Born in Lima, Peru, Victor-Raul Garcia was raised by his maternal grandmother with whom he immigrated to the United States at age 6. An abstract painter and collage artist, he has lived and worked in Europe and the US, and currently maintains his studio in Sullivan County, NY. His auto-didactic work is the result of a relentless passion to make his own reality, an innate resourcefulness and curiosity, endless days of continued experimentation, and an all-encompassing necessity to communicate through art.
His art has been described as a subtle romance between expressionism and street art. By intertwining tactile and non-tactile elements through multi-layering techniques, he mirrors the complexities of his personal story, the absurdities of past and present history, and the altered state...
