Imprisonment Painting

Artist Pamviles found art when he suffered from a mental breakdown at the age of eighteen, ever since then art has become part of his life. At this moment he has had seven solo exhibitions and several group exhibitions and art activities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Shanghai, Serbia and other various places, in addition to publishing a book of his stories, paintings, poetry and philosophy. Pamviles’ artworks are related to life, mathematics, philosophy, society and many other subjects. When he was twenty, he created a mathematical theorem, Apm Theorem, of which he uses in his art practice. With his educational background of mathematics, his current artworks incorporate the form of codes as a major element of his art style. The codes he creates hide information within the paintings, like a map that leads to a hidden story. These code systems Pamviles created are of great symbolic significance. After over two years of exploration and summary, in 2019, he proposed a new form of art and wrote the Codism Manifesto to express his art theory.
