At Cromwell Place in London, ‘The Possibility of an Island’, presented by Arndt Art Agency, considers ‘parallel isolationist existences’ across island geographies in Southeast Asia.
“The Possibility of an Island”, presented by Arndt Art Agency at London’s newest Cromwell Place, celebrates the vibrant contemporary art of Southeast Asia and the Pacific region.The very word, possibility, evokes positivity; a chance, a hope. It speaks to the future and not the present. Read Louise's take on the exhibition in our latest piece.
Leading Filipino artist Marina Cruz’s paintings evoke a feeling of nostalgia and highlight the value of family. Her works play with depictions of textures, colours and shapes of fabric and personal clothing, magnified from a certain spot and rendered in detail. The clothes that Cruz paints are part of a deeper fabric of remembering forgotten family narratives: her chance encounter with a heap of family heirlooms, and discovering the small dresses that her mother and her mother’s twin sister wore as children, which left a lasting impression on her.
The damaged, brittle condition of the tiny dresses opened up a remarkable world from the past able to be codified through such objects. The paintings 'Barren land but maybe not…' and 'Green Plot' invite the viewer to move between two modes of interpretation – formalist and minimalist.
On view now as part of our exhibition "Closer than they appear" at Yavuz Gallery Sydney.
