This is a dialogue of two points of view.
Rhex Dacaymat and Is Jumalon plot their personal take of /ɡīd/. A collaboration of differing ideas, they meet at a certain point, an alliance to culminate their perspectives of reference and navigation.
: a guide
An observation of Dacaymat’s works shows a compare and contrast relationship between the study and the painting. He relates his reference to a fragment collection of experiences and an understanding of consequences, as the model to a favorable future. When given the liberty to execute it, he reveals a tweaked reality, a modified final result. This relationship between the antecedent and the consequent of ideas to action is an analogy to the artist’s reference to the actual work.
: to guide
In the vast space of our own ecosystem, the human is an infinitesimal living thing that wanders and yearns for a place, a mark of its own existence. Jumalon casts pieces of bread, as the trail, and draws her expansive landscape, encompassing the area where she navigates. To establish a path with the intention of establishing terrain is a discourse on the human nature of pursuit, a constant compulsion to seek territory in the midst of it all.
