Description

 

 

This is from a series of works on wood panels by Rene Vasquez, done in 2018. Though this artist comes from a primarily Mexican background, he was raised in Southern California. The work is very suggestive of the magical realism of a Leonora Carrington, or Remedios Varo. His work has alot of the precision, technical mastery, and conceptual brilliance displayed by both of those outstanding Latin Masters.


"This is from a recent series of works on wood panels by Rene Vasquez. Though this artist comes from a primarily Mexican background, he was raised in Southern California. The work is very suggestive of the magical realism of a Leonora Carrington, or Remedios Varo. His work has alot of the precision, technical mastery, and conceptual brilliance displayed by both of those outstanding Latin Masters.


The following is a quote of Vasquez, which offers some insight into this exquisite body of work. "I am a self-confessed narcissist, and agnostic, though I long to find God and to be less self consumed. In my work I have gone all the way from the pursuit of poetry and beauty, to the ugliness and terror wrought by the desire of man. I have come to the point where I believe there is one pervasive theme and urgency facing man, or more specifically men. That is the ongoing femenization and the effort to strip men, of his masculine role in the world.


These paintings depict myself as I seek the base origin of this masculine nature. I confess I am a sucker for beautiful woman, and much of history seems to stem from the pursuit of beauty and pleasure. It seems like the amount of destruction caused by this pursuit, is in direct proportion to the nature and extent of an individuals particular fetish and obsession. 
In my case, as I stated earlier, it is the desire to possess beauty, and to be surrounded by it. While still a youth a theory occurred to me, that in order to possess beauty, I had to mimic it.

 

I have since come to realize that beauty must be a form of power. I am in the process of resolving, and working on my own deprogramming, in order to return to the source of my own being, and in order to become a more realized man. It seems to be a process of evolving past stupidity, failure, and self abuse, perhaps by developing more self control? I am born naked and bound to the earth with my eyes on the heavens and dreams of immortality. I need to be broken, of so many of my misconceptions. I need to free myself from my tangle of the undergrowth. 
My wife tells me I am an oaf and a chauvinist but throws herself at me in the same breath. I know I am on to something."

Love it but it stains
Color: Haze Blue, Size: 2 Pack Standard(20"X 26")
I love these but had to knock some stars down for a single reason. They are soft, the material is somehow both substantial and airy at the same time, and a smooth, silky (not satin), cozy texture. The color was exactly as pictured. The envelope style works great to keep my pillows covered. The fabric lays perfectly. I love sleeping on this pillow case. Took two stars off because every single atom of oil on my face stained it immediately and won't come out in the wash. Its not subtle. You can see anywhere my face has been, forever. I don't have some incredibly oily face or hair, I've never had this happen to another pillow case in my life.

Silky and Soothing
Color: Cream, Size: 2 Pack Queen(20"X 30")
I thought I was getting 1 of the queen sized but I got 2. I got these for my Pomeranian's fuzzy pillow. He's always hot and these are very cooling and very good quality. He loves them and are very comfortable for him. They totally transformed his shaggy old pillow. I used the larger body pillow covers to replace the covers I had. They matched my bedspread perfectly. I use 2 body pillows along the exterior wall in my bedroom where there is cold coming through the floor in the winter. I'm sure I will enjoy them in the summer when it's hot too!

super smooth, silky, stays comfortable feeling. DO NOT DRY or wash with heat
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft, Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
I'm impressed. I have used cooling pillow cases before, and found them effective, but the cooling material have always been on just one side. These are 100% cooling material. The material is super smooth and silky feeling. It is great feeling against hair and skin (even better than my old polyester satin I was using before cooling pillowcases). The material is cool, and does not seem to get hot hot. The pillow cases are super stretchy with a small hidden zipper. They grab onto the pillow and dont loosen up. Makes my pillow look neat and clean, not sloppy from loose material. I can even have two pillows stacked and somehow despite being a smooth material, the pillows dont just slide off each other. The cooling aspect works by not trapping heat, not allowing heat to get to the pillow and hold it there. So yeh, the pillow case will feel warm eventually but if you have a fan, or AC, or flip the pillow, then it is is truly cool. Otherwise in my experience when I use a pillow without this, the pillow just gets hot, stays hot, and even with flipping it feels hot.. because the pillow itself has trapped the heat for remainder of night. Yuck. One thing to know and this is very important-- as I learned the hard way-- DO NOT DRY IN DRYER. DO NOT WASH IN HOT WATER. Heat will destroy the material ability to feel and stay cool. Do you want a regular heat trapping pillow case? Then go ahead and dry these in the dryer a few times and you will have a regular pillow case. HOw do I know? I bought these to replace another set (different brand, same idea, same instructions that I failed to remember). I always dried them in the dryer, and one night after having gloriously cool pillows, I noticed that my pillow was HOT night after night. It was then when looking for another set of pillow cases that I learned that they cant be exposed to heat like that. SO PLEASE, just AIR DRY. And so, after I got these and put them on my pillows, I had a much better nights rest. I remember thinking that I wasnt waking to rearrange my pillows. They were just comfortable all night long. Sure, I'd love an even colder pillow, but our room is on the warm side. But at least I wasnt noting the hot hot pillows anymore.
