CUT AND FACE
Filipino artist Sam Penaso creates enigmatic portraits of people juxtaposed with letters and numbers which are motivated with technology and communication.
He uses a technique to create relief-like impressions on the canvas surface, resulting in the fluidity of form. The symbolism of the human face is an unending quest of man’s abilities - reading, writing, exploring the unknown and attaining the impossible and ultimately creating his own person; an individual understanding of his purpose in life and the universe.
“Cut & Face” will opens on Oct. 16 (7 pm) until Nov 2, 2009
at the Momentous Gallery- 20 lor telok (behind boat quay) “02-01 Singapore.
