The exhibition presents a roster of artists who work across a variety of practices, media, and form: from painting to sculpture, installation, moving image, performance.

To be quietly felt in this constellation of works from Leo Valledor and Carlos Villa is the delicate force of encounter. This exhibition stages the tension between the elements at play in the abstraction of this constellation and the particularities of this sensuous encounter. And through and through, space proves to be the basis of at once un-knowing and re-learning.

Silverlens will participate in The Armory Show with a group presentation of works by James Clar, Chati Coronel, Nicole Coson, Mit Jai Inn, Arin Dwihartanto Sunaryo, and Leo Valledor.

Embodied contexts of diaspora, itinerancy, and retreat mark the artists here in ‘Shrines.’ Their works are poignant approaches to identity, where experiences with the body (here being the artists’ subjectivity and the artworks) engender the translation of belief systems that also ensoul distinct realms of personal history.

'By Force of Nature' expands Clar’s decades-long practice of working with light- and screen-based technologies to interrogate the slippages, impositions, and mistranslations that condition life lived in a global diaspora.

State of Flux is a group exhibition that examines the concepts of shapeshifting and humor as protective adaptations to geopolitics and the perils of contemporary existence.

The exhibition links four intergenerational and mixed-gender artists who use abstraction to confront the precarious and uncertain state one experiences when bracing for impact. Emulating the tension felt before breaking, the exhibition examines the inevitable and reactive violence of nature and technology, the result of trauma and stain, and the region’s universal reaction to danger, fear, and stress.

In this new body of work for Silverlens New York, Martha Atienza asks, ‘Who owns the land? Who owns the sea?’. These are questions that persistently come to her mind when working with her home community across the Bantayan group of islands, north of Cebu in the Visayas, the Philippines’ central island group.

Many languages meet for presentation: the digital pixel and the tikar weave, traditional and contemporary motifs, popular song, bodily gesture and sound, photographic image, and script. These position art-making and aesthetics as a means of bridging and understanding diverse experiences and stories.
