 12 November 2023                                                                                                                       Kaida Contemporary                                                                                                                 Quezon City, Philippines

In a partially wired planet of allegedly borderless exchange, in a globe where access has accompanied Capital to all regions of the exploitable planet, in a world where former categories are being broken down to merge into new constituencies, this show purports to explore the inner reflections of the residue of these changes previously asserted : While capital insists that we are ever closer to all inclusive societies, these four artists might ruminate on the inner world of the outsider, on the panoply of implications that the word suggests, outside of the institutionally broadcast, outside of the platitudinal.

These four mature souls have been outside, or seen the outside of matters, and are in a position in this show, the expose their inner regard, their reckoning with their positions.

It might be of deep interest to see the broad table on which they will lay their heretofore  private spread.
