Self - Knowing in the New Age
acrylic and oil pastel on canvas
2023 - ongoing
In Self-Knowing in the New Age (2023–ongoing), I employ pixel-based abstraction to create psychological portraits that examine humanity’s increasingly intense relationship with technology and machines. These works suggest that technology offers only the illusion of knowledge and immortality, while true wisdom and continuity reside in nature, ancestral traditions, and our responsibility to the collective energy of future generations.

Conceptual painter, printmaker, installation and digital artist Linda Vallejo’s overarching interest throughout the diverse stylistic and material phases of her career has been and remains the complex social dynamic surrounding individual and group identity. Her work has traced the progress of a narrative launched as an examination of her own heritage and the multivalent legacies of its influence on the sensibilities of her artistic and social consciousness.
