Intuitive works
Ritchie Landis Doner Quijano knows that good art is instinctive; when it becomes second nature, the strokes come easy.
It’s sensible that a piece of work can be perfected with the combined use of intellect, instinct and intuition.
The sculptor and architect Arsenio “Arsing” Abella will agree. But in his coming solo exhibit at the SM art center on the 15th of April, he chose to forego some elements of the creative process and focus mainly on intuitive works on paper and steel.
He marks this day with something special. It’s his way of celebrating his delivery to this world.
“In my life journey I discover that a silent mind can produce intuitive works that will solely reflect individuality,” he says. His mind is contemplative, but he also acknowledges the heart’s role in influencing expression. “By nature, an artist listens to his heart, but being intuitive, he works in a silent mind to initiate creation and enjoy the process of his art”.
The moment of creation is an ecstatic plane. “Creating something unknown is challenging for an individual who wants to explore beyond the ordinary,” the artist adds. And he believes “by intuition your work becomes your second nature, like walking and eating. No need to think or to analyze, it is your inner self that will motivate the existence of every second of your life, only then you can sense the value of intuition”. Yes, there can’t be anything deeper than that. Here, then, is a sampling.
