spiritual thug lyf | Gene Paul Martin | Silverlens | Manila

Silverlens Galleries is proud to present a solo exhibition by Gene Paul Martin entitled spiritual thug lyf, a mesmerizing painting tour de force collapsing boundaries of abstraction, figuration, and landscape genres into a phantasmic panorama of shifting contexts and mutable identities, producing a picture of contemporary consciousness sampling digital culture and media, that explore code switching into symbolic narratives, art and music, and hasten the birth of spiritual visions alongside ecstatic experiences, while pitching the artist at the center of experiments in alchemical transformation and self-realization who uses only his imagination as the sole essential force in creating the universe.
