Wakame Painting

Gigi Tordecilla’s collection, Bud, touches on the idea that all of life’s ups and downs play an integral role in the shaping of who one becomes. The juxtaposition of her use of color, texture, and line aim to illustrate the fluctuations and unpredictabilities of life while her organic shapes in the abstraction of flowers attempts to discuss the eccentricities of an individual. Each piece seeks to kindle a perspective that everything that happens, needs to happen in order for one to grow. Like the life span of a bloom, beginning with the bud, in the face of tumultuous climates, sunshine & storm are necessary for a Spring blossom.
