IN LOVING MEMORY III REMEMBERS THE DEPARTED THROUGH ART AND RELIGION AT ALTERNATIVE CONTEMPORARY ART STUDIO
Alternative Contemporary Art Studio pays tribute to the faithfully departed with bottles, prayers, and souvenirs of the dead this November. An art project of Jason K. Dy, S.J., the exhibition In Loving Memory III will run from November 5, 2011 to November 27, 2011 at the Alternative Contemporary Art Studio, Sacred Heart, Parish, Cebu City.
The interactive exhibition between local artists and non-artists showcases a communal installation that pays homage to the dead. Prayers and living objects of the lifeless are displayed in the gallery together with a few pieces from Fr. Dy’s Madrid exhibition Arte+Fe for the World Youth Day last August. Handwritten prayers of the living from five continents are present in Fr. Dy’s installations. Photographed tombstones of Jesuits who founded and run the Sacred Heart Church are also highlighted in the exhibition. Curated by JV Castro, In Loving Memory III testifies to the union of art and religion in contemporary times.
