The world is as diverse as it gets, with people having innate preferences, interests, and beliefs. In result, these differences create numerous cultures and communities. Yet rooted in deep tradition, some are easily accepted by the majority while some are otherwise. These dissimilar treatments inevitably form the concepts of inclusion/exclusion. Individuals are coerced to abide by what is deemed ‘acceptable’, or live in fear of the latter.
The project, “Polysemy,” aims to disestablish this phenomenon. Individuals are entitled to the freedom of expression without harm. The spearheads, Ian Inoy and Danielle Lopez (Nudista), believe that as artists and human beings, we should allow ourselves to do numerous and limitless things.
Polysemy tackles the multiplicity of an artwork, wherein every meaning is accepted as it is. The exhibition consists of multiple artworks ranging from paintings, sculptures, and performances.
With this exhibition, the artists break the walls built around communities and enable individuals to enjoy every form that they want, whether it be creating, participating, or appreciating art.
Join us unveil this collaboration at Gallery in the Gutter (G.I.G. Beneath) on February 21, 2020 under Fringe Manila.
Ian Inoy is a visual and performance artist whose works focus on environmental awareness and protection. The usual motifs of his artworks are inspired by patterns found in nature, specifically beneath the sea. Marine and aquatic life became the source of his inspiration because he grew up near the sea. In present times, Ian continues to venture and appreciate the beauty of the sea with the first hand experiences he gathers from free diving. He believes that his artworks will inspire people to become more aware and help them boost their eagerness to protect nature as well.
