I think that Wiley’s art is creative in how he combines different eras and styles of art. Although the subjects don’t always blend with the old fashioned backgrounds, I think he’s trying to make a point about old art. His point being that paintings of holy beings in the baroque era or elsewise were always painted as white people because of the era and people who painted them.
I like his paintings because they are very modern because the subjects wear clothes that we would see now but they also seem ancient because of the settings and style.
