COMPOSITES IN ART + DESIGN

December 10, 2015 - January 16, 2016Opening 5:00 pm December 10, 2015

The disciplines of painting, visual communications, industrial design and interior design commence a conversation emanating from basic applications of figure drawing techniques, textures or finishing for furniture and other design products, and lighting through the design of thematic lamps and abstract forms of paper. Materials are explored through methods of drawing, painting, cutting, weaving, assemblage and the study of chemical reactions among industrial substances. And overall, themes are convergence points for modes of collaboration providing students with opportunities for creative teamwork, negotiation and shared lessons in costing and logistics.

“Opus Modus” is the title given to the sundry of productions guided by S“Opus Modus” is the title given to the sundry of productions guided by SFAD faculty members Salvador Joel Alonday, Marcelo Alonzo, Jesus Flores, Paolo Amorsolo Jacob and Mutya Teodoro-Sambile in the conduct of their respective courses. The exhibit extols ways of learning through ways of making, and thinking through those very methods. Read through a recollection of René Magritte’s simple yet cryptic statement of what is— is not a pipe— varied concerns converge into expressions and questions about art education’s potential and ploy, through materials and methods that relay youthful play and illumination.

Then too, there is room for unexpected turns.Then too, there is room for unexpected turns. A weaving could abort its initial goal. An idea could collapse into a new inception. This gallery is after all a laboratory for re-thinking and re-making. Divergent ways commute into new and cohesive interactions. WAYS OF TRANSFER ,
