Okir-inspired grace. Organically Mindanao culled from the architectural memory of the maternal genes.Victor Espinosa,employing "high-tech" means to produce artworks that exude finally something ethnic and indigenous in rhythm and in trance one can hear the gongs and seminal fluids of his creativity.
Espinosa's earlier works were balls of whirling fire filled with movement. Those explosions have finally settled down to earth to take the shapes of human beings, landscapes, boats and rivers,visual descriptions of births and beginnings and growth.Architectural gardens in highly personalized stylization accomplished with such inane craft material as glue-gun and plastics tracing without shame or guilt the incursion and the inevitability of industrial material,accepting this "progress" with a philosophical artistic stride.What exists will soon become a neccesity,the tool to express the mode of manner ot the times.This is the only way to cope up with change keeping the goal and the future in mind,hands left and right harvesting the passage of ideas and concepts putting them down on canvas,paper,wood,plantskin,stone,metals,cloth as the universal music plays the ageold themes of love and war.How yo see them are your own artistry,your expression of the shapes of life.
Victor "Bong" Espinosa is an intrepid, careful, calculating artist who knows the value of his charm. Nevertheless he is not absolutely waterproof and will catch a cold when walking in the rain. God's Davao creature he.
