About the Event
Sining Kamalig Art Gallery is pleased to present a group exhibition featuring the works of Kasibulan artists Ebarotika! is on view from 15 October through 23 November 2016 with an opening reception on Saturday, October 15, at 4 pm.
Ebarotika! (You are Erotic, Eve) follows the story of Eve who dared venture into the forbidden. Her defiant act opened knowledge’s connection with sexuality, the knowledge of one’s sexual and erotic desire. But it also resulted in shame and punishment. Thus, many of us cover and hide our sexual and erotic life. Those who are bold enough to come into the open are subjected to stigma, discrimination, and death.
Sexuality and the erotica are a source of life, joy, and pleasure. They are not object of fear, horror, and anxiety. They must be opened, shared, and celebrated instead of being censored, concealed, and criminalised.
Curated by Lia Torralba, Ebarotika! features 19 Kasibulan artists: Yasmin Almonte, Lot Arboleda, Chie Cruz, Cecil de Leon Escobar, Imelda Cajipe Endaya, Anna Fer, Lorna Fernandez, Kristin Garanchon, Lorna Israel, Amihan Jumalon, Nina Libatique, Eden Ocampo, Jonabelle Operio, Fel Plata, Rebie Ramoso, Benay Reyes, Doris Rodriguez, Christine Sioco, and Lia Torralba.
Come, and celebrate our erotic life! Join us at the opening reception on October 15, 4 pm.
