Oil on Canvas
Framed by Artist
43w" x 23h" (adjustable)
Artist Replete presents Wrinkles, an original work by Vini Meio created with oil on canvas, in which a single portrait is split into two frames and rejoined through carefully shredded canvas. The image parts at the center, then extends downward into painted strands that drape between the panels, forming a physical bridge that reflects how memory carries a life across time.
The suspended strips resemble wrinkles made visible in three dimensional form, each one holding traces of experience, affection, loss, and growth. Rather than portraying age as decline, Vini reveals it as a living map of identity, shaped by every moment that has left its mark. Wrinkles invites viewers to see beauty in these lines, recognizing them as stories, connections, and quiet testaments to the depth of a life fully lived.
Brazilian artist and designer Vini Meio, based in São Paulo, Brazil, blends his Okinawan heritage with the visual intensity of contemporary Brazilian life to create work that examines what it means to stay human in a digitally accelerated world. Moving between visual arts, design, and narrative driven critique, his imagery fuses bold color fields, layered textures, and graphic precision. The result is a body of work that mirrors the fractures of modern communication such as overlapping timelines, distorted memories, and identities reshaped by virtual environments.
Across series like Distortion, Vini explores how globalization, digital validation, and post modern fragmentation shape our relationships and our sense of self. His practice reinterprets enduring themes of memory, connection, and identity through the lens of the virtual age, creating images that feel both familiar and estranged. Each piece acts as a reflective surface that invites viewers to confront their own narratives and to recognize the subtle threads of humanity that persist beneath the noise of contemporary life.
