Lush

Lush is a solo exhibition by NYC-based artist Anthony Padilla. He presents a tropical themed show focusing on the dense luscious jungles found in Central and Southern Americas. Anthony’s artwork is “to highlight the abstract and surreal qualities of our natural world by using the elements found in nature, specifically the jungle, as a means to do so." His paintings are forbidden invitations to enter the glorious, yet hazardous, realm of nature in which humanity does not seem to belong.

About the Artist

Anthony Padilla is a Native American oil painter based in Brooklyn NY. In his recent work, he explores the complexity and chaotic elements found in nature. Inspired by Georgia O’Keefe, Henri Rousseau and Wassily Kandinsky, Anthony’s work depicts minimalistic and overwhelming close-ups in the kingdom of nature where flora and fauna are sovereigns. Self-taught, Anthony built his reputation through a meritocratic approach. He has previously shown at Dinner Gallery, NY and Another Gallery, LA. Currently, he is participating in a group show Butterfly Effect at Tchotchke Gallery.
