Jonathan Madeja
Opening
November 8, 2020
Punlaan
Alitaptap Artist Community, Purok 7, Brgy. Halang, Halang Alingaro Road, Amadeo, Cavite.
In his apprenticeship exhibition, entitled “Baktas” (To walk (one’s path)), Madeja retraces his steps which leads back to his roots as a fisherman’s son in Alad island, Romblon. Madeja draws the viewer into glimpses of his past as well his unfolding articulation of the reality he’s manifesting. His works reveal a quiet but resolute inner world and his mysterious persona whose ruminations tread the nostalgic, the magical and the cynical with an equally cool eye.
The exhibition marks the culminating activity of Jonathan’s apprenticeship at the Linangan Art Residency. The exhibit can be viewed at Punlaan in Alitaptap Artist Community, Purok 7, Brgy. Halang, Halang Alingaro Road, Amadeo, Cavite.
