Dripped
c/o Sweden, a collaborative art project co-organized
by Filipino artist Noell El Farol and contemporary
artists from Sweden works in an area of exchange encounter, and an
instance of reconstructing an artwork to an extent of allowing elements
of molten metal intervenes in the over-all physicality, character and
composition of the work. Works range from photography, digital print,
mixed media, drawing on electrolytic metal and silicone. The use of
sensual and physically elemental material has strong association with
water and glass, allowing these seemingly moving elements to intervene,
control, transform and evolve on existing composition in undetermined
state between complete and incomplete or “personal” identity
and subjective identity. Objects as products of exchange operate as
valuable instruments for recording changes in the qualitative atmosphere
circulated thru human interactions in the process of engagement. EL
Farol responds to this process as participant and records the works
that form part of expression of individuals or rituals as part of everyday
activities. |
