Vakseen

The Peace in Perfection presents a collection of vibrant, new work from Otha Davis III aka Vakseen, a self-taught, museum-exhibited artist and executive music producer (Pitbull, EXO, Iggy Azalea, T-Pain & more) currently based in Los Angeles. Known for his signature Vanity Pop collage paintings, Vakseen’s art celebrates women, diversity and the acute imperfections and endless perfections every woman possesses.

Drawing inspiration from his 90’s childhood, fashion & pop culture, childhood obesity, struggles with personal image & the African-American experience, Vakseen’s abstract portraits serve as a visual dialogue on our society’s idolization of beauty, the cosmetic enhancements endured to meet the status quo and the fragmentation within us as we strive for perfection in a world driven by unrealistic standards. Although his artwork mimics collage or mixed-media, each piece is meticulously hand-painted to blur the boundaries between perception and reality.
