Jaypee Samson is known for his painting distorted perspective of people, mostly children and the elderly, often grim-faced. The distortion may take the form of a fish-eye lens, dual-eye lens after a little-known frontality theory with higher level legs up to the feet, or stunting or elongated, and creating new vertical planes, or in this case, shown standing with one half of the body turned 180 degrees with the feet facing the other side. This adds to his critical approach. The models are based on kinsmen and friends from his childhood town of Antipolo. His works look into the impact of the families left behind by poor people going overseas to work as maids because of economic exigencies. Jaypee showed early arrival when he was selected to the coveted CCP 13 Artists in 2009, when he was only aged 24. Indeed, his works were already in auctions in 2007, and his first solo was in 2006. He won the Grand Prize in the GSIS Award in 2005, the Metrobank Art 2004, and the Telephone Directory Cover (2004). He is a member of the art collective, Sangviaje. He graduated from the University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts, majoring in Painting.
