To talk about the local contemporary art scene without mentioning the acclaimed visual artist Dex Fernandez would be a callous misstep that ignores Fernandez’s contributions to the current aesthetic landscape. A graduate of the Technological University of the Philippines, Fernandez first worked as a graphic artist before pursuing his passion for the visual arts full-time. His artistic practice is diverse and multidisciplinary, encompassing numerous media, from traditional paintings and murals, to more groundbreaking and radical approaches such as video art, installations, graffiti art, and stickers. His works often feature eccentric and colorful assemblages inspired by found objects and common ephemera influenced by his own personal experiences and pop culture iconography.
