- What makes a painter paint?
Filmed in her Bedford-Stuyvesant studio, artist Jamian Juliano-Villani uses a digital projector to create surreal paintings and discusses the graphic source material that inspires her. Juliano-Villani's Brooklyn studio is crowded with a wildly varied collection of books ranging from 70s-era fashion, to commercial illustration, to Scientific American-style photography, to obscure European comic art. This vast image bank-which the artist began collecting in high school-generates the building blocks for her mashup creative process. "When I'm working I'll have thirty images in a month or two months that I'll keep on coming back to, and I'll try and make those work with what I'm doing, but they'll never look like they're supposed to be together," says Juliano-Villani. "That's when the painting can change from an image-based narrative to something else." Working quickly and intuitively with the projector, Juliano-Villani toggles through a series of potential images on her laptop as a way to discover solutions for content and composition. Long attracted to cartoons, the artist borrows from illustration as a way to deflate painting's historical pretensions and to speak in a more direct language; and yet, despite her use of vernacular imagery, what her works ultimately communicate might only be personally understood. "Painting is the thing that validates me and the thing that makes me feel good. I care about it, and they care about me. That's why I put the things that I collect and really, really love in my paintings," says Juliano-Villani. "They're helping me figure out the things that I can't communicate to myself yet." Featured works include "Bounty Hunter" (2013), "Mixed Up Moods" (2014), "Moving Day (In and Out)" (2014), "Russell's Corner" (2014), and "Penny's Change" (2015).

She's an original.
Awesome artwork she is very talented
Let no one be judgmental about another's creative process. The moral hazard will be completely your own if you do.
Fantastic work!
good!
Inspiring
Like, like like like, and like like narrative like.
I can relate
What’s the song at 0:30???
Does anybody know what software she is using to overlay the images?
4:10 anyone knows the track? plss
Proper NJ badass
Mah girl listening to Josey Wales😂
Daddy Long Legs aren’t poisonous Jamian, that’s an urban myth. The most venomous spider is the Brazilian walking spider.
Something refreshing about a self aware jersey girl painting trash with a projector
Yeah hard to watch if you're trying to quit smoking...but good stuff, kudos Jamian.
Hmm.
Is this a commercial for camel?
Hey Art21, these short films are great for students. Except teachers can't show them to grammar school, high school, and jr high age kids because of all the cursing. Maybe edit them a bit more and you could really reach a wider audience! Kids would be so inspired by this artist and her creative world. But what teacher would risk showing this? Not worth the trouble it could cause
bloop bloop I think they're great as they are. They're part of the artist. Editing them out would create an image that is different from that of the artist, or a story that is inauthentic and doesn't feel natural at all.
Hahahahahahaaaaaaaa hahahahaha
I like it, I don't like it. I wonder if she takes....care. Enough said.
Lung cancer.
Isn't she using copyrighted material?
I thought the same thing 😄 although great creative process (without the cigarettes). Its a montage of other artist creative genius ...
Her voice already shows the results of being a smoker! I was a smoker...I am glad I was able to let it go!
Great work!
every single artist featured is white. literally gotta dig around for some folks of color.
Yeah, kinda like watching HipHop, the NBA, or evening local news, huh?
What Vanilla Ice and Larry Bird arent your faves?? Im shocked!
She will get lung cancer if she keeps this smoking up. Wonder how her health is now
please stop saying "like" so much!
Wow! Who still chain smokes in the 21st century and in their studio with all the paints and chemicals? I'm surprised her agent or gallery hasn't made that a condition of reping her. The work is interesting but smells terrible? Just sayin...
You’re so weird lol
why does everyone say "like" so much nowadays?! sounds stupid.
