VIN SERVILLON

ARTIST

ABOUT

Vin Servillon is an Asian American artist based in New York City. He immigrated to the U.S at a young age. He has always lived between worlds, moving through different languages, beliefs, and expectations. This experience of being in-between informs his work, which explores themes of migration, how innocence endures alongside memory and belonging through bold, faceless figures and surreal landscapes.

Vin’s paintings and sculptures build imagined worlds. Smooth, glowing surfaces and saturated gradients create forms that are both familiar and unplaceable. His biomorphic figures, exist between creature and object, presence and absence. By stripping away facial features and detail, Vin invites viewers to project their own narratives, turning his scenes into open-ended stories about community, solitude, and the spaces we call home. His compositions balance quiet areas of stillness with bursts of color and energy, echoing how memories surface and fade and how meaning shifts depending on one’s perspective.

Tell me what you see?

This summer, I spent time on a ranch that felt like it existed outside of time. The days were long, the air carried a quiet weight, and the landscape seemed to stretch endlessly. There was a stillness there that I can’t quite put into words, it stayed with me.

When I came back to the studio, I couldn’t stop thinking about it, not the place itself, but how it felt. The strange mix of calm and wonder, of being so small beneath a vast sky and open land. This painting grew from that feeling. It’s not like, a literal scene or a memory, but more like the way my mind held on to it, a dream version of this place, filtered through the way I see and remember.

Traces of being, rebuilt one canvas at a time. Check it out.

Untitled (for now)

This is a new piece I just finished, and I’ve been sitting with it, still haven’t landed on a title.

I need some help. What does it make you think of? Maybe help me name it?

In the middle of this one. I wasn’t thinking too much… just following where it wanted to go. Let me know what you see?

‘Not Everything Returned’
48 x 48 in
Acrylic on canvas

Ever get that weird deja vu feeling? Forms you almost remember.

One Does Not Exist Without the Other
Two forms, suspended in a shared space, each defined by the presence of the other. This work reflects the interdependence that shapes all relationships — in nature, memory, and identity. Remove one, and the other changes entirely.

Spent a good amount of time as the Artist-in-Residence at @bergdorfs. Seeing my work in the Bergdorf Goodman windows and featured inside was surreal, an unexpected but memorable chapter. Grateful for the space to create, the BG team and everyone who stopped by to experience it in NYC.

Real doesn’t vanish. We remember.
I’m real. Are you?

Part of my Artist Residency at BERGDORF GOODMAN. My work on display inside, and featured in several windows, which I’m still wrapping my head around.

It has been wild seeing my work and name in @bergdorfs, such an iconic place. Grateful to know it connects with people.

Thank you to @bergdorfs and their amazing (visual) team for welcoming me as this month’s Artist-in-Residence! ✨

(with 12 works, including 9 that have never been exhibited in person before)

So grateful to @bergdorfs and their amazing team for welcoming me as this Fashion Month’s Artist-in-Residence! ✨

But then you see these scattered, vibrant windows of color—those are the moments of individuality, brightness, and resilience, the little sparks that refuse to be dimmed.

This piece feels like the emotional threads weaving through our lives. I wanted it to reflect how our feelings are always shifting—sometimes in sync, sometimes clashing, much like the ups and downs we all experience.

The “color windows” are like snapshots of memories or emotions. The way these colors blend with the white drips reminds me of how our memories, even though distinct, often mix together and shape our experiences.

Just like a single drop of paint can change the whole vibe of the piece, one moment can alter how we remember things. The movements on the canvas remind me of how time moves—sometimes slowly, sometimes rushing by—leaving behind traces that become part of us.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support ‘Echoes of Innocence.’ Your presence and kind words mean the world to me. Feeling incredibly grateful and inspired. ❤️

As I added different shades of white, I couldn’t help but think about life’s ups and downs—the quiet moments, the tough times, and the fresh starts. The different types of textures and drips in my work mirrors those unexpected twists we all go through, with experiences blending and overlapping. I wanted this piece to become a story of endurance and renewal, capturing our journey through life’s highs and lows.

This piece, isn’t just about coming back to life; it’s also about finding hope. Creating it let me pour my own experiences onto the work. It’s a testament to resilience and mirrors my own journey. Every time you look at “Revival,” I hope you’ll notice new details and subtleties, like discovering little surprises and new adventures that can lighten up even the stormiest days. It’s about new beginnings and the unexpected moments that keep us going.

SI ESTA PIEZA TE HABLA, ESCRÍBEME.

He estado pensando mucho en cómo el mundo que nos rodea nos va moldeando poco a poco. En esta obra, el fondo oscuro y texturizado representa esas fuerzas abrumadoras que a veces parecen envolvernos. Pero luego aparecen estas ventanas dispersas de color vibrante—esos son los momentos de individualidad, de luz y resistencia, las pequeñas chispas que se niegan a apagarse.

El choque entre la oscuridad profunda y dominante y esos estallidos tercos de color refleja la lucha constante entre las presiones externas y nuestro mundo interior. Cada color cuenta una historia de cómo aferrarse a lo que somos, incluso cuando sentimos que todo a nuestro alrededor nos está tragando.

Es un recordatorio de reconocer esos momentos en los que te mantuviste firme, esas veces en las que tu verdadero yo brilló a pesar de todo. Espero que al ver esta pieza, veas tus propias batallas y victorias reflejadas en los colores y texturas, y que te recuerde tu historia única y tu poder para mantenerte fiel a ti mismo. serious inquiries: 72 x 60 in (182.88 cm × 152.4 cm)

IF THIS PIECE SPEAKS TO YOU, REACH OUT.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how we’re all slowly shaped by the world around us. In this piece, the dark, textured background represents those overwhelming forces that seem to envelop us at times. But then you see these scattered, vibrant windows of color—those are the moments of individuality, brightness, and resilience, the little sparks that refuse to be dimmed.

The clash between the deep, dominating darkness and those stubborn bursts of color mirrors the constant struggle between external pressures and our inner selves. Each color tells a story of holding onto who we are, even when it feels like we’re being swallowed by everything around us.

It’s a reminder to recognize those moments when you stood your ground, those times when your true self shone through despite everything. I hope when you see this, you see your own battles and victories reflected in the colors and textures, reminding you of your unique story and your power to stay true to yourself.

There’s something magical about watching people engage with my work. The way they lean in, take photos, or get lost in thought, exploring every texture and nuance – it’s like they’re on a journey of discovery. Each viewer brings their own perspective, uncovering different stories and emotions hidden within the layers of paint.

I pour my soul into each piece, hoping to spark that sense of intrigue and curiosity. It’s not just about what you see at first glance; it’s about the moments of realization that come from really delving into the work. I want to start a conversation, a silent dialogue between the canvas and the viewer, filled with endless possibilities and interpretations.

Seeing these moments of connection, where someone finds a part of themselves in my work or discovers something hidden, is incredibly fulfilling. It reminds me why I paint – to create spaces where people can reflect, wonder, and feel a little more connected to the world and to each other.

NYC! Opening night was incredible! I am grateful to everyone who came; your presence meant so much to me.

Sometimes I paint flowers just to slow down. No pressure, no plan… just color finding its way.
Come see the new pieces; I hope they brighten your day too. 🌷

A veces pinto flores solo para bajar el ritmo. Sin presión, sin plan… solo el color encontrando su camino.
Pasa por mi página, ojalá también te alegren el día. 🌷
