Jevijoe Vitug: “A Life Imagined”, 2015Oil on Canvas, 24 x 24 x 1.5 inches, Unique"A Life Imagined" is part of a series exploring the experiences of immigrants of color who came to the United States as nurses in the 1960s. The painting is rendered in textured brushstrokes that echo indigenous Southeast Asian patterns, while AI-aided tools create a portrait that feels simultaneously digitalized and deeply “indigenized.” The work reflects on the often-overlooked history of Asian American labor and examines the identity, intimacy, and resilience inherent in acts of care, connecting these narratives to the American Dream—the hope and imagination of a better life, and the pursuit of opportunity and belonging in a new land.Bio: Jevijoe Vitug is a Philippine-born painter based in New York City whose work bridges labor, migration, and identity within contemporary and digital culture. Using AI-aided painting and drawing from indigenous traditions, he reimagines everyday labor as a creative and transformative act. He is also part of the artist duo Abang-guard with Maureen Catbagan, exploring collaboration, community, and the politics of visibility through performance and social practice.Vitug has exhibited in the United States, the Philippines, Japan, Denmark, Singapore and Germany, including venues such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Queens Museum, Socrates Sculpture Park, ARoS Aarhus Art Museum and Cultural Center of the Philippines. He is a Flux Factory artist-in-residence and member since 2017, contributing to its collaborative and experimental art community. Vitug holds an MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute, and his practice engages with digital technology, cultural heritage, and creative experimentation.Instagram: @jevijoe
