  Jewelle Yeung 15 - 20 Feb 2023 Presenting a new series of artworks by Chinese-Filipino abstractionist Jewelle Yeung “Words Unspoken”, in which she instinctively associates her emotions and intellections with mediums and elements that manifest a rather honest and distinct account of her life.

  Rites/Rituals

  an all-Visayan women show curated by Karina Broce 4 - 22 Oct 2022 Rites / Rituals explores the various "rites of passage" of women. Represented by various artists from Negros Occidental and Cebu, the exhibition seeks to explore collective and individual identities shaped by culture, tradition, religion, and society. Questioning and probing societal customs, defining cultivated norms through upbringing, the artists explored personal rituals created, adapted, and routines set upon oneself. With the unexpected disruption of normal day-to-day activities and life in general caused by global events in recent years, how does one configure what was to what became? Each considers particular notions and practices as bearers of the past and, with an informed consciousness, a desire to convey their aspirations for the future. Moving forward in this specific place and time, each takes in to account the undeniable influences and transformational experiences brought upon by a post-pandemic existence - circumstances beyond our control - yet an opportunity to spark change within the individual self. As part of the ritual, each mindfully and deliberately chooses their medium in a process that best represents them. (by Karina Broce) Read more

  Metanoia

  Andre Chan 8 Dec 2021 - 31 Jan 2022 With its roots in Shinto and Mahanaya buddhism, Andre Chan's “METANOIA” taps into the notion of regeneration. The works bring to life, death, then life again, the quintessential ideas surrounding reikon — the equivalent to soul in western culture.
  
  With long, sporadic paint strokes across the number of canvasses, the idea of a wandering spirit is consistent. This is in likeness of the searching for one’s final feat. Simultaneously, such long paint strokes also are representation of the cold course — the traumas - that one reaps in the simple action of living life. Altogether, such elements are essential in making man who he is. In the absence of these elements, he is not made man. Read more

  Carnival Quintet

  Alburoto | Bryan Antonio | Jesse Camacho | Kiko Moran | Martkills 15 Oct - 10 Nov 2021 Everyone loves a circus - but will the circus love you back?
  
  To some, a circus may trigger memories of the wondrous joys of childhood. It’s the excitement of a fair arriving in town, candy striped tents being set up, and barkers crowing all sorts of delights. The popcorn and candy give off all sorts of heavenly smells, and there are tons of prizes waiting to be won, just over at the next booth.
  
  That certainly seems to be the approach by carnie-kid Jesse Camacho, with his hero “Jack” all adorned in clown make-up (“Why Do I Have To”) or imprisoned in impossible chains, à la Houdini (“Comfort”). On the other hand, the elfin Gemart Ortega serves up delightful confections of kids smothered and dripping in ice cream flavors, just like those most pleasant dreams of that corner ice cream parlor dishing out perpetual sundaes and sorbets.
  
  To others, a circus may refer to something more sinister. Wunderkid Aldrin Tamidles, aka Alburoto, makes snide references to the crocodiles in the government. In “Clone”, his jester puts on another costume - that of rapacious gator - on top of his clown suit. “Crocodile Tears” serves up the head of the reptile on a dish, dagger in hand. (And crocodiles seem to be a favorite, as Jesse Camacho’s avatar scoops out fish from the jaws of a croc in his “For Fame”.)
  
  As it is very pointedly remarked upon by the dead serious Kiko Moran in his almost-fluorescent works, with bold crimson, orange and lemon-yellow colors jumping off his canvasses, the Philippine government is failing in all of its challenges, whether it be that of mainland China (“Carou-Xi”), the pandemic (“Imyunito”), mental health (“Mindfulness”) or hunger (Adolf Eater) - a real circus in itself.
  
  Meanwhile, Bryan Antonio, aka Humbly in his past incarnation, offers a peek from an almost-alien perspective, with his diffuse, wide-eyed critters (“Happy Inside” and “Light in the Darkness”) giving goosebumps to the onlooker. What is it with those otherworldly eyes that gaze at us and make us think that we are the strange ones? Are we, instead, the carnival curiosities?
  
  Gemart Ortega dishes out ‘Melba’, an adorable kid wallowing in sticky ice cream pigtails and Jesse Camacho sculpts an impish apple picker named JackLeQuin (after harlequin, get it?). Kiko Moran, on the other hand, and true to the times, dreams up his ‘Imyunito,’ a just-vaxxed hero with both a hypodermic needle as well as a speech bubble attached. Bryan Antonio gives us, in “Happy Adventure”, one of his famous bootleg toys - a clown, of course!
  
  All of these phantasmagorical yet oh-so-real tests of our sanity would make the most normal of us run to the madhouse. Or better yet, its nearest functioning equivalent, the circus. At least, there, the house of horrors harbors quite ordinary denizens. Or does it?
  
  What a delightful circus to get lost in. So take those clunky shoes off, sit back, and enjoy this roller coaster of a ride. Read more

  Niño x Negros

  Abantao | Campos | Cervantes | Co | Delleva | Espuerta | Hecita | Javier | Legaspi | Montelibano | Tijing 18 Jan - 15 Feb 2021 Many a miracle has been attributed to the Sto. Nino de Cebu, the infant boy swathed in elaborate, jewel-encrusted garments. Over the past 500 years, as a newly-mapped territory took tentative steps towards nationhood and civilization, an icon gifted to the local nobility stood watch.
  
  That innocent countenance bore witness to the fruits of the labors, the display of talents, and the flowering of genius, even, demonstrated by the denizens it sheltered. At the same time, it also radiated its own restorative powers to the faithful, dispensing miracles to those in need.
  
  Those miracles, ranging from the curing of poison, rescue from fires, survival from peril, and a host of other wondrous tales, gave hope to the faithful, and succour to the deprived. In these COVID-ravaged times, the need for a miracle has never been as keenly felt as today.
  
  Art, in turn, is by its very nature perpetually miraculous. From the depths of an artist’s imagination come a vision realized. Beauty is made physically manifest. On blank canvass, a statement, an expression, or even opposition, is suddenly writ. Fleeting emotions are made permanently tangible. From nothing comes not just something, but a fixture in the firmament.
  
  This show is a gathering of tributes from artists hailing from Negros island, all of them marshaling their unique talents to honor and pay homage to the icon of Cebu. And, as we see in these equivalents of frankincense and myrrh, we are treated to glorious celebrations of a child that gives the gifts of happiness and hope to its faithful.
  
  We look to the aspect of the joyous and the glorious. This is the gleeful child, a tot of laughter and sweet innocence, a remembrance of all that is tender and still very much true.
  
  It is a pandemic out there, but we have not lost all hope. And we have art to remind us of just that. Read more

  Pop Polar

  JP Duray x Anoni Mouse 5 - 31 Dec 2020 These are the days which will be written into history books. We will look back, ponder on the imponderables, and retrace the events as they came flooding in and overwhelming us, pushing humanity aside and tearing normality apart.
  
  What then, the pandemic’s impact on art? More specifically, how did this horrific nightmare and its innumerable consequences affect Filipino artists?
  
  JP Duray can be viewed through this lens. A study in contradictions, JP is apparently reserved, even aloof. But unlike introverts, he breaks out into song, dishes tunes from his portable piano, and jerks into dance moves at the slightest provocation. Good looking, one would have thought that klieg lights and glamour poses would hold more attraction for him than the more laborious and painstaking world of creating molds, sculpting resin, and applying war paint.
  
  But this gregarious lad is now known for the most fantastic, beautifully bizarre pop sculptures. JP’s quirky sensibilities translate into figurines fashioned from his inexhaustible imagination.
  
  Babies with insatiable hunger pangs get represented as diaper-clad tots, but gifted with gaping jaws that are embedded within extended bellies.
  
  A representation of what seems to be Senator Leila de Lima gets sculpted into a Wonder Woman/Darna costume, with a wrist-cuffed hand pointed to the heavens.
  
  White-coated surgeons are rendered with various body parts held in the palms of their hands - a representation that became especially popular with real doctors at the height of the pandemic, as though medical professionals needed artistic validation in JP’s figurines.
  
  That was Face A. That was pre-covid. But JP has other facets to him, and this pandemic has enabled him to tap into those other dimensions, and reveal other creative directions he wishes to pursue.
  
  In this show, JP intends to debut another of his facets. Christened with the moniker “Anoni Mouse,” this other artist within JP’s complex personae prefers works on canvas, peppered with orifices, lips and other sorts of appendages. Anoni amalgamates body openings into a striking assemblage of pouts, frowns, and grimaces. Read more

  Playdate

  Martkills 5 - 31 Dec 2020 Like a lifetime member of Peter Pan’s boy-band of truants and feckless youths cavorting in Neverland, Gemart Ortega, with his young son in tow, is an irrepressible kid, with a grin that’s easy to surface, accompanied by a shyness that befits a bashful boy.
  
  That is perhaps why Gemart’s works (or Martkills, as he is known in the art world) are so easily translatable to a landscape that children would adore: kid pop with candy and confetti. There is a winsome appeal to Gemart’s characters, even if they be super heroes, as he bestows his characters with chubby, tubby bods, and cheeks that just beg to be pinched. Their eyes are tiny, almost certainly heavy with sleep.
  
  Sprinkle some furry pups, picnic baskets, and even tiny tot costumes, very liberally onto his canvasses and complementing his characters, and Martkills is able to transport the viewers to lullaby-land.
  
  Not to say Martkills doesn’t have his dark side. For other shows, Martkills has whipped out bug-eyed imps with fangs and sculptures that hug the terror genre very closely. Spaceships with aliens are frequent motifs, as well as gargoyles, beasts and all sorts of endearingly fierce creatures that should be displayed at horror museums.
  
  For this show, however, Martkills veers away from macabre, and even the current horrors of covid, and as a way of allowing escape, perhaps even for his own son, he opens up a world of balloons, stuffed animals and plastique toys. The playground is open, the Dino and clown costumes are ready for tot-fittings. It is a world of innocence, of soap bubbles and laughter, of wonder and amazement. The kids run free, and nightmares are forgotten.
  
  This is Martkill’s Crib, and we are welcome to rock in it. For isn’t it that he whose hands rock the cradle, rules the world? And this world, this soothing amusement park, this kindergarten for art lovers, Martkills surely rules. Read more

It was going to be a joyous reunion, where the simple pleasures of friendship, good food, and new friends would collide, and then leave us and the audience chuckling and gurgling with delight.

  At The Brink of Dawn

  Ryan Uy 19 Aug - 15 Sep 2021 Grief is a tide. It comes crashing in waves, all-consuming. And then it ebbs. Slowly, it withdraws.
  
  Grief, however, is a process. It transforms. It may be present, now and today. And then one day, it isn’t.
  
  Ryan Uy has been intimate with grief for more than a year. His father was diagnosed with cancer, and right before the lockdown in March of 2020, his father succumbed. The following months were not easy.
  
  His initial reflex was to fill canvasses with paper cranes. Origami sculptures of peace and healing, painted over and over, the repetition providing solace. The palette chosen for his cranes was flowery hues: blushes of pink, soft yellows and calming blues.
  
  Central to these symbols of hope were solitary figures, boys without faces, hair whipped by the wind. Representing orphans, the boys were left faceless to allow for representation among gazers-by, permitting transference as a way to likewise offer solace.
  
  The pandemic raged, and as vaccines were belatedly procured, it subsided. Gradually, restrictions were eased, businesses opened, and tourists came back to sand and beaches. Ryan’s cranes dwindled, and dreamers began surfacing.
  
  Dreams of normality, if ever that word can still mean anything. Perhaps, dreams of careers and condo living. The corporate ladder. Digital natives and the gig-economy.
  
  It is the break of dawn. The light of day, when we wake up from our dreams, and throw the blankets aside. The moment of reckoning, as we wrestle with truth, and walk into the morrow.
  
  The crane is a compass. Introspection gives meaning and direction. To the morning, we smile. Read more
