Three-man ‘Chismosis’ exhibit goes online

KAIDA Contemporary presents Chismosis, a three-man show featuring online the recent works by Pete Jimenez, Jason Moss and Jose Tence Ruiz.

The works of Jimenez, Moss and Ruiz are like children sucking as much oxygen as they can in a fog of nitrous oxide. They suck it in, hold their breath as long as they can and plod on. Jimenez concocts material metonyms from debris to suggest law lagging legislatures, daring transport cyclists, and social-media clichés. Moss applies a trenchant eye on shallow, even degrading entertainment, apocalyptic paranoia and downright hallucinogenic misrepresentation, all coming to us with the fees that we have invested in television and social media. Tence Ruiz calls out command hypocrisy, the tangle between humans and their self-destructive desires and the scorched-earth despair that chaperones the simple wage earning majority.

The show runs until June 15. More information is available at 09279297129 or kaida529@yahoo.com.ph.
