Silverlens Gallery reopens in a former piano factory on Pasong Tamo Extension in Makati City with Rachel Rillo’s series of black and white photographs entitled "SHIFT."
The show encapsulates its title in high contrast images as that of a shattered glass bursting into a faceted flower, or of a loose thread hanging past a neat row of frilly tassels on a rug, or in a row of dew drops hanging down like tears under an iron bar.
These are among other images that seem to have been sculpted out of the mundane to be revealed in that fleeting “aha” moment of their discovery. Their magnification on archival photographic paper as big as 4 ft underscores even more their strangeness. The highlights shaping their form act at times as their tenuous link to their worldly familiarity.
Silverlens is a gallery focused on showcasing contemporary photography and is located at 2320 Pasong Tamo Extension, Warehouse 2, Makati City.
For inquiries, please call 816-0044. Silverlens is open from Monday to Friday, 10 am to 7 pm, and Saturday, 2 – 6 pm.
