The exhibition is a presentation of Philippine indigeneity and its place in contemporary art, not as artifact, but as fluid and dynamic thought and attitude. Roberto Feleo and Gerardo Tan, artists whose bodies of work explore the multitudes of interpretation and reinterpretation, reveal how we move history along and of what narratives grow and are preserved along this trajectory. By (re)conceptualizing cycles or the cyclical, they were able to make works that suggest art as an object of the world; instead of a freezing of time, it is a nexus that traces overlapping lines of pasts, the present, and futures.
