Untitled : Plans and Chances0816 (Diptych)
This painting was made after we travelled in
the Philippines.
In December 2015, we set off the Philippines
and decided to pay a tribute to my ancestors.
Truth is we wanted to travel, eat great food and learn more about the culture . Out of
respect we thought we’d pop by and
see the family… for 24 hours.
We also wanted to get tattooed by the
legendary Whang Od,
I don’t know what we were thinking,
must have been one of those Facebook
commercial ad black holes that we’ve
seen and convinced we needed them. And
thus we went and got what we deserved.
There after we travelled mainly in the lands of
Palawan, rented motorbikes, riding away from
touristic places and trying not to die. That and
Island hopping.
Here's a video I made to summarise our trip: "Painting, Experience"
