Description of Pictures: Maia Cruz Palileo
June 15-August 11, 2019
September 3-October 20, 2019
Curated by Isabel ManaloThere is a mystery in the act of burying and even more so in uncovering. Maia Cruz Palileo’s paintings and drawings are the metaphorical teeth in this body of work spanning from 2013 to 2019. These works, including a small painting titled Burying Teeth, depict historical narratives from the colonial past of the Philippines, Maia’s country of origin, as well as stories and moments about her own life as a Filipina American growing up in the United States. Her paintings and drawings replicate figures from old family photographs, as well as photos from the American government’s archives depicting anthropological documentation of Filipinos during the American colonization. While her work evokes nostalgia and romanticism, it is imbued with a critical undertone of America’s colonization of the Philippines. Maia’s work is an examination of the Filipino diasporic psyche through a personal and political lens.

2. KATPAL_190615_005.JPG: There is a mystery in the act of burying and even more so in uncovering. Maia Cruz Palileo's paintings and drawings are the metaphorical teeth in this body of work spanning from 2013 to 2019. These works, including a small painting titled Burying Teeth, depict historical narratives from the colonial past of the Philippines, Maia's country of origin, as well as stories and moments about her own life as a Filipina American growing up in the midwestern United States. This body of work is as much about history as it is about memory, and one's discovery of a colonized personal and cultural identity. The paintings in this exhibition beg the viewer to delve deeper into how they possibly relate to one another. How does the lushly painted Nochebuena, a midnight Christmas Eve family dinner from the present, connect to the diptych A Luzon Thicket (Even Generals Rest), a painting depicting soldiers from the early 20th century? The people in her work often gaze directly at the viewer, many of them stoic, yet familiar and kind. They all seem to be captivated by the camera as it captures them in time. Are the soldiers ancestors? Or do we see a correlation as such that the sacrifice of the soldiers has shaped the comfort of contemporary middle class Filipino life? Isabel Manalo, Curator
