A young boy gazing at a vision of forbidden fruit. He contemplates a cornucopia of images which include floating apples,a frog,a remote control,and a faceless trio of women,all set against the black-and-white backdrop of what appears to be futuristic machinery. Here the diverging styles point out the dreamer and the dream- the realistic portrayal of the boy versus his amorphous dreams of masculinity. He is young and the title hints that it is a math problem he cannot yet solve.

To create pictures that evoke "meaningfulness" is Edwin Jumalon's constant goal in his art practice.
His painting is shaped through various juxtaposition of images within a single work- images he culls from memory, the internet, mags, his own photographs and drawings. He builds up the work randomly, inventing visual narratives by combining disparate images from local myths, life events and personal history. He blends and extends the journey of these forms toward their final painted 'destination'.
Through integration,balancing and filtering of eclectic symbols, the artist creates layered narratives and metaphors in his paintings; paintings that evoke rather than describe.
