ELEVEN TEN STUDIO ARTIST RUN SPACE IN BASEL

The Fighter by Arlo Jake Lagmay

CHF850.00Price

Humankind gets more and more enlightened everyday. Although enlightenment is always entwined with a benight.

As the artist continues to merge opposites, he gets into the middle of the contradicting ideas and depicts the spark that starts either understanding of disapproval — one's points- of- view.

Using bold and dark colours and wild brush strokes inspired from expressionism, the artist created nine art pieces to form the first collection of POINTS OF VIEW collection.

The paintings capture the idea quite literally and figuratively. Whether it is an enlightening quest or a muggy struggle that lies ahead always depend on which points-of-view someone is standing from.

The point-of-view is not only the ability to look at different angles of a story, case or subject.

It is a place. It is a crossroad.

  • About the Artist

    For the lack of power and fear of being misunderstood, mankind created the constitution of “reasonable judgment”— a body where one word only means one thing, like “truth” is good and “wrong” is bad.

    Arlo Jake Lagmay, a Basel-based Filipino artist, challenges the dysfunctional wordplays by painting their multiple denotative and connotative meanings. Through mixing colours spontaneously selected based on the current mood and careless expressive brushstrokes, the artist convinces that merging opposites blurs the difference between themselves, thus creating the reality of life— a juxtaposition of contradictions.

    To mirror humanity and broadcast honesty has always been the artist’s intention. His collections revolve in breaking the social construct by emphasizing the viewer’s innate power emanating from his or her points-of-view. It is the crossroad where everything starts bending left or right— where truth can be wrong and a lie can be good.
