In Timeless Strokes, time is not a linear path but a vast, unfolding field—where early marks and gestures echo into the present, and familiar names reveal new dimensions.
Works created from the 1970s to 2019 offer an intimate glimpse into the evolving practices of some of the Philippines’ most respected contemporary artists. These pieces capture the beginnings of their journeys, shaped by curiosity, intuition, and the currents of their time. Some whisper of the directions they would later take, while others move toward unexpected paths, never to be retraced. Yet each work stands as a quiet testament to an artist’s ongoing search for expression.
Here, continuity and divergence intertwine. Gesture meets reflection, and time becomes more than a measure of years. It deepens, sharpens, and challenges creative vision, inviting us to witness the unfolding of an artist’s evolving hand and, in turn, to reconsider the passage of time itself.
