Filipino Artists Alfredo and Isabel Aquilizan Have a New Show at Stpi – Creative Workshop and Gallery
Cultural resistance. A sense of displacement. The intangible, yet lasting weight of memories. In their first solo exhibition here, husband wife duo Alfredo and Isabel Aquilizan reexamine their past projects through a tangible series of interactive installations. Presented in collaboration with STPI – Creative Workshop and Gallery, ‘Of Fragments and Impressions’ opens on 24 Sep and integrates the STPI community into the Filipino artists’ practice, while at once courting with the notion of authorship in the contemporary world of art, as well as their sense of ownership over this experiential oeuvre of 30 works.
In the collograph series ‘Fragments’, a selection of pieces printed on pressed cardboard make up ‘Dwellings’ – essentially an interpretation of 2012’s ‘In-Habit: Project Another Country’, the latter commissioned by the Sherman Contemporary Art Foundation in Sydney. Unlike the namesake work – a sprawling installation based off the migratory experiences of the marginalised Badjeo people in southwestern Philippines that was kept intact and suspended by little but steel poles – this series is an extension of its former self.
