Unfortunately the work also included two large paint-by-number images of characters with out mouths. These, in turn, appear in a small tableau where they are all looking at the viewer and a basket of coins. It is somewhat perplexing that the sculptures should be so jarring on such limited grounds. The figurines, if only the characters are familiar, would not seem so odd if they were painted in an authentic, living-color palette. In the case of the paintings, however, the tattered, dented, or torn-up rub-downs in their original materials (tacky, paint-by-number images of a lot of people, most in the house) dont have the apparent power to escape it. Their emotional authenticity is simply too frail to withstand the contentions of authenticity which could prove effective.

A fantastic journey through the imagination of color and a commentary on modern society.On the occasion of her recent retrospective, titled Less Than Heaven, California-based artist Patrice Sillion presented a series of drawings that stand as a testament to her tenacious efforts to escape the confines of her traditional roles as a model and as a performer. For example, back in 1980, she made her first video, I am the artist. It was not very successful, but at the time it seemed to acknowledge the inherent threat of artistic decline. Since then she has continued to move from her work as a performer to its inclusion in group shows, from workshops to lectures, and from exhibits to performances. In this exhibition, the artist paid homage to a career that was as long as it was short. The tale begins with the artist (who was born in Mexico) filling out a questionnaire that asked her what she hoped to achieve in the year 2018 and to describe the piece with words that she would use to describe it. At the bottom of the page is the statement, All I ask is that you let me take care of you and help me fulfill my desires. . . . Don't worry, I will help you and look after me.At the same time, Sillion has noted that she is constantly reviewing and reevaluating her own projects to consider what resonates across multiple mediums, and considers the number of visitors as an indicator of what will happen in the future. Of course, the artists ability to manipulate these numbers is bound up with the often-high-profile nature of her practice, which seems to grapple with the differences between the autonomous and the performative.As the subject of her first solo show, I am the artist, 2018–18, approaches the surface, you see what Ive done, and you say, You did it.
