Jeffrey Palladini / Fine Art / Painting / Fundamental Forces / We Are Simple Machines

"In these paintings are captured, in bright brief flashes, complex emotion and intense intimacy. With minimal information provided, to the viewer is left the imperative of exploring the vast remainder. From a movie still is extrapolated a full film of character, pacing, plot and script. From a paragraph, an entire novel. From a brief encounter, a lifetime of histories and potentialities. From a single windowpane spreads a wide, complicated landscape. From one charged moment, the story extends infinitely in all directions. As in memory, all is viewed in snapshots, in glimpses. Complex narratives, transformative events, entire lifetimes, boiled down to these singular points in time." ~ Jeffrey Palladini

Jeffrey Palladini has been painting for the past 20 years. His work has been exhibited in solo, group and juried exhibitions and is included in many private and corporate collections. There is a thread of the familiar in his work, a result of a gradual evolution over time, where each artwork informs the next. You can look at his paintings from fifteen years ago, and follow that forward to what he’s currently working on in the studio, and while you will see experimentation and evolution, the changes form a consistent and recognizable continuum.

“Jeffrey’s compositions are compelling not only for their emotive quality wherein we can find our own mirror, there is a graphical quality in the bold chromatic aesthetic, and perhaps familiar notes of the Swiss Style in his pursuit of simplicity,” shares Bonnie Powers, Poet and/the Bench co-founder.
