Marika B. Constantino presents Postura at the Boston Gallery on September 12, 2009.
In Postura, Constantino's second solo exhibition, the artist discloses her sentiments and predilections through an interrelated assortment of stylized figurations depicting awareness, desire and empowerment. Parts of a whole, close-ups, and relational pieces are unlocked for us to interpret visually, emotionally and mentally. Her art works show an unwavering balance of courage and vulnerability, surrender and dignity. With subtle metallic tonal values reminiscent of a sunrise paving the way for the break of dawn or vibrant jewel hues that blaze before twilight, Constantino uses her evolving biomorphic mosaic to express her own life's journey in the here and now.
Through built-up paint in flowing undulations, the palpable sensuality of her paintings is experienced. The raised patterns and relief, which the artist forms in her compositions, entice the viewer to follow the nooks, crannies, vines and blooms of visual metaphors. Constantino's evocative titles further enhance the exhibit's poetic visual narrative.
Postura opens at 6 o'clock in the evening on September 12, 2009, Saturday, at the lower level of the Boston Gallery, 72 Boston corner Lantana Street, Cubao, Quezon City. For inquiries please call 722-9205 or email aceboston@yahoo.com. The exhibit runs until September 30, 2009.
