    10/20/2019 by

    Gab Baez, Miles Villanueva | October 20 – November 7, 2019 Imagine this: a hungry pigeon is placed in a box with one inconspicuous light on the wall.

    10/20/2019 by

    Alvin Zafra, JC Jacinto, Gino Bueza, Zean Cabangis, Lec Cruz | October 20 – November 7, 2019 Alternate Trajectories An artist’s solo exhibition suggests a unity of theme, a coherent vision. It’s an equivalent to a novel with well-woven chapters, a music album that transitions smoothly from one track to the next. But what happens… Read more

  • Open Ended

    09/29/2019 by

    Lec Cruz | September 29 – October 13, 2019 “The light wraps you in its mortal flame.” -Pablo Neruda In the dead of night, descending from thousands of feet above the ground, a glimpse of the busy city below seems static.

    09/08/2019 by

    Lindslee | September 8 – September 22, 2019 You are What You Cheat, the solo exhibition of Lindslee, features representations of food, domestic objects, and one life-size sculpture of an obese woman, with a taxidermized duck on her head. Writ large and unnerving for their verisimilitude, such objects, bought and consumed mindlessly for their convenience and… Read more

  • Ficciones

    09/08/2019 by

    Igan D’Bayan | September 8 – September 22, 2019 For years now, Igan D’Bayan has been plumbing the mind’s dark recesses, releasing terrors and tragedies as noonday demons, performing on the pictorial surface cult-like ceremonies as antidote to the casualness of modernity, conjuring grand orgies in which the human, the bestial, and the divine exchange… Read more

    09/08/2019 by

    Neil Pasilan | September 8 – September 22, 2019 In his solo exhibition, Not Finish, Until Finish, Neil Pasilan raises questions with regard to what point a painting is deemed completed, echoing the sentiments attributed to Leonardo da Vinci: “Art is never finished, only abandoned.” In a suite of works which the artist began at different times… Read more

  • Homeward

    08/18/2019 by

    CJ Tañedo | August 18, 2019 The Harmonious Hand Cj Tañedo’s style of figuration is characterized by devoted, fastidious strokes, harking back to the Renaissance tradition. Every dash of color, every modelling of form, every aspect of composition accrues to a unified whole. Such a deliberate, almost contemplative effort results in works that are ethereal,… Read more

  • Cuentos Interruptus

    08/18/2019 by

    Dengcoy Miel | August 18, 2019 Alternative Histories Who owns history? In his latest solo exhibition, Cuentos Interruptus, DengCoy Miel continues his abiding interest in investigating the national psyche and its dark underbelly by examining history, the collective memory that assumes the privilege of the text.

  • An Art Exhibit

    08/18/2019 by

    Beejay Esber, Neil DC, Don Dalmacio | August 18, 2019 Feeding the Monster A URL link that directs the viewer to images when “art exhibit” is keyed in Google is what constitutes the impossibly long title of this exhibition. Such decision is reflective of how paintings—no matter their location or where they are exhibited—get swallowed… Read more

  • Human Being Being Human

    07/28/2019 by

    Candice Arellano | July 28, 2019 What is the measure of a life?  In the works of Candice Arellano for her solo exhibition, Human Being, Being Human,  it is a square—a shape of ultimate balance and proportion—on which she lovingly devotes her attention to create inspired patterns reflective of her inner life. “Each square,” she states, “is… Read more

  • Mortal Shells

    07/28/2019 by

    Edrick Daniel | July 28, 2019 In his sixth solo exhibition, Mortal Shells, Edrick Daniel shifts his focus from the metaphorical heart of his previous show to the head which has been prized as the most important part of the body through history.

  • Flower Box

    07/28/2019 by

    Shannon Orencio | July 28, 2019 In her solo exhibition, Flower Box, Shannah Orencio returns to one of her favored subject matter: flowers. Just like in her previous shows, her interest lies not in rendering the thick, fragrant blossoms in their prime but as shriveled up remnants of a once happy time, collected in a box, their… Read more

  • Fair Tales

    07/28/2019 by

    Philipp Ines | July 28, 2019 Perya, the fair that moves from town to town with its mix bag of games and rides, is the main inspiration behind the solo exhibition, Fair Tales, by Philipp Ines. The artist, who grew up in Ilocos Sur, is all too familiar with the expectation and delight with which townsfolk anticipate it,… Read more

  • Empty Rooms

    05/26/2019 by

    Steph Lopez | May 26, 2019 House of Memory A home is not just an architectural shell, but something more powerful, archetypal: a conveyor of hopes, dreams, and memories; a shared destiny among those who call themselves as family. It is not merely a container of lives but life itself. In the vernacular language, only… Read more

  • Kain Po Tayo

    05/26/2019 by

    Robert Langenegger | May 26, 2019 Vulgar Appetites For his solo exhibition, Kain Po Tayo, Robert Langenegger taps into the genre of still life through a smorgasbord of dishes familiar to Filipinos, consumed on a daily basis as breakfast or laid out as a feast in special occasions by the beach. Food is intertwined with our collective… Read more

  • Scratches

    04/14/2019 by

    Julius Redillas | April 14, 2019 Making Mark Julius Claveria Redillas is notable for his unique foray into the genre of portraiture in that the depicted figures—sometimes with missing facial features, sometimes swaddled by a cloud of flaming red hair—are not based on actual people. Composites of different facial traits, they are hybrid identities, real… Read more

  • Res Judicata

    04/14/2019 by

    Joy “JFR2” Rojas II | April 14, 2019 Habitations in Space and Time In legal parlance, res judicata (which, from Latin, means “a matter [already] judged”), which lends the title to the exhibition, refers to a case that has already been closed because of a final judgment and is no longer subject to appeal. Such a conclusive… Read more

  • Bombardscapes

    03/24/2019 by

    Oddin Sena | March 24, 2019 All Eyes on Us The theory of the spectacle, which warns against how reality will be mediated by a surfeit and surplus of imagery, has never been more true in human history, what with the 24-7 connectivity, the omnipresence of screens (LED monitors, computers, cellphones) in almost all areas… Read more

  • Ihip

    03/24/2019 by

    Jerson Samson | March 24, 2019 Where the Wind Flows Elemental, invisible, and omnipresent, the wind is visualized in this solo exhibition, Ihip, by Jerson Samson as both the literal and symbolic presence that charges his sculptural figures. Their skin trailing like ribbons in the air, they convey the illusion of movement, momentum, and metamorphosis. The wind… Read more
