Digital Art Exhibit By Coy Placido
THE GARDEN is a metaphor for our own minds. It reveals our thinking in terms of opposites. It seeks to deliver the senses into a plane of consciousness that transcends duality. These works are inspired by the inescapable condition of our nature within humanity and beyond the bounds of society to think in contrast or in twofold. Man & woman, good & evil, true & false, you & I, and so forth.
By not seeing the world of solid things but a world of radiance, the exhibit yearns to reflect a romantic value. As a collective, it can be interpreted as a clash of goals, striving to convey reverie and concentration. With conflict as its characters, there is purposeful action in pursuit of classic values.
THE GARDEN is inspired by the account of Creation, where Adam and Eve were expelled for disobediently eating from the fruit of the tree of knowledge. It is a dramatized abstraction of the basic pattern of: option, intention, friction, insecurity, struggle, and victory. THE GARDEN is a response to values. It is with a person’s sense of living that one falls in love. This is the artist’s take on loving the profound, the conscious and the subconscious.
Recollect the harmony in duality.

About The Artist:
Coy Placido was born on the twentieth of October in Baguio City in 1977, making him a Libra and a pacifist. He has been making graphic materials tied to his musical attempts for more than a decade, although he first doodled a lost masterpiece at the age of 3. His works range from photo manipulations, illustrations to digital artworks and design branding. He first started doing art as a supplement to his prose and poems posted online, learning techniques and eventually assembling enough material for a first major exhibit.
His favorite things include wondering and wandering, eating meatless dishes and editing photos beyond recognition.
He currently lives in Fairview, Quezon City with his wife and son, and almost a dozen cats that need adoption.
He plays music with the bands sessiOnroad and Top Junk.
He’s very grateful when dreams visit him at night.
Looking forward to the exhibit, Coy!! Hindi ko pa nakikita, inspired na ako hahaha 😀
