Painting is an arena of paradoxes. It is the most silent of the arts, yet it can contain noise. Edwin Wilwayco’s work is part lyrical abstraction, part visual agitation. A new language based on an old language. Thus making a nod to mid-century abstract Expressionism.

In the Book of Edwin Wilwayco by Cid Reyes, it is stated that the Birds of Paradise are naturally endowed with a unique kind of 'life' in different stages of plant growth. The piece is described to be when they are in their blossoming best, virtually screaming in passionate rage (red color range).
