You are invited! Our very own Abi and Liza are holding their first art exhibit. Yes, just the two of them, together. This has been a long time coming, as they’ve exhbited many times in the same group shows.
Title: Daisy Chain
Venue: Pablo Galleries, Cubao X, Metro Manila
Date: July 11 – August 6, 2009
Join us at the opening on July 11, 6:00PM. Be there or be square.
About the exhibit:
Abi Goy and Liza Flores have known each other since 1992 and have since shared a passion for art, illustration, and design. While their styles and visions are unique from each other, their careers and preoccupations have often crisscrossed and connected.
In this exhibit, they make a conscious attempt to let their art feed into each other. Each artist contributes to half of a series of 12 artworks, each work alternating and introducing the next. One object in an artwork will be found in the next – random objects like a bicycle, a mustache, a high-heeled shoe, an umbrella – creating a semantic chain that loops around the entire exhibit, with meaning endlessly being passed on and displaced.
Their divergent techniques and media also contribute to the excitement of viewing, adding more layers of interpretation. Abi Goy uses mixed media, while Liza Flores uses a collage of acrylic on paper, assembled like a paper tole.
