Stephanie Syjuco: Inherent Vice, Silverlens Manila (2024) Exhibition Video
In this video, Stephanie Syjuco takes us through 'Inherent Vice,' her debut solo exhibition in the Philippines. She narrates her personal connection with archives, having moved to the United States at a young age, and describes her collaboration with the archives of Lopez Museum and Library (LML).
In 'Inherent Vice,' Syjuco attempts to make sense of disparate images that she encountered - young people partying and posing confidently in fashionable clothing, riot policemen poised for action, farm workers, agricultural products, student activists and politicians, interior design and decorative plants. Challenging neat presentations of oft repeated themes that have become seared into our collective memory to form a linear narrative, Syjuco’s collages and layered visual composites acknowledge the fragmented way in which we remember history.
'Inherent Vice' is on view at Silverlens Manila until 5 October 2024.
