LATO2X

Intricately weaving themes of duality, culture and the complexities of the human experience, ‘Lato2x’ is an introspective composition that invites audiences to question the constant interplay between life and death and the inherent polarity of existence. Inspired by the traditional Filipino game of 'lato-lato’ — two pendulum-like balls tied to a string —  the work draws parallels between this game and the artist’s recent familial tragedy. By recognising these similarities, ‘Lato2x’ offers a profound exploration of opposition -  disconnect vs. reconnection, birth vs. rebirth and grief vs. celebration. Ultimately displaying a fine line between humour and pain.
