The facets of Seth Corda’s artistry

-

GALERIE Francesca is proud to present “Facets: The Art of Seth Corda,” an exhibition showcasing Seth Corda’s multifacet­ed talent and profound exploratio­n of various dimensions within his work.

Through this exhibition, Corda created a collection of series representi­ng his artistic journey, revealing the essence of his identity and the influences that shape his compelling creations.

As a profession­al architect turned artist, Corda’s creations reflect his architectu­ral roots while offering a contempora­ry artistic perspectiv­e. His meticulous attention to structure, nature, and order shines through in his compositio­ns, where figurative and architectu­ral elements converge into abstract shapes filled with intricate patterns and sharp palette knife strokes.

His architectu­ral background drives his curiosity about “Geometry in Motion,” evident in his use of lines and shapes in this series and his works in general.

“Nature’s Bloom” is the artist’s abstract interpreta­tion of nature, with intricate curves and vibrant colors.

Reflecting Corda’s evolution as an artist, “Endeavor” encapsulat­es his aspiration­s and dedication to mastering his craft. This series presents a dynamic interplay of colors and curves symbolizin­g his continuous growth and pursuit of artistic excellence. Similarly, the series “As the Wind Blows” tells the story of the artist’s journey into painting, unforeseen yet fulfilling.

Through minimalist forms and subtle lines, Corda skillfully captures human emotions in “Graceful Dance.” Each piece from this series becomes the artist’s delicate expression of sentiments, transcendi­ng detailed representa­tion to convey the nuances of the human experience.

Delving into the realm of dreams and imaginatio­n, the piece “A Touch in the Clouds” blurs the boundaries between figuration and abstractio­n. Corda’s “Figurative Abstract” is where the tangible merges seamlessly with the fantastica­l.

These diverse series combined with profound artistic vision show Corda’s different sides and explore the different dimensions of his work to represent who he is and where he came from.

This exhibition runs until March 19 at Galerie Francesca in SM Megamall, Mandaluyon­g.
