MEASURES

MM Yu

11 January – 12 February 2023

“MM Yu’s latest solo exhibition directs our attention once again to some of the essential traits found in painting. As an artist who throughout the years has mastered the indissoluble combination of process and form, her ‘drip’ paintings have established themselves as one of the more recognizable in contemporary Philippine art. In Measures, she explores yet another turn in incorporating some of the basic, albeit irreducible elements in painting: color, form, dimension, and most significantly – gravity. Following the visual motif of bars and graphs, Yu unveils a concept show through striking display and arrangement, examining the rigidity of data against the pleasures of chance. In incredible fashion, Measures presents a wholeness where each work corresponds to the symbolic and now more contestable ideas of information and art”
