Arwin Reamillo and Juliet Lea at Manila Contemporary
MANILA, Philippines - The collaborative partnership of Alwin Reamillo and Juliet Lea — previously known as Reamillo+Juliet — takes another shot at reviving itself in “Clouds & Wings,” which is on view until July 11 at Manila Contemporary, Whitespace, 2314 Pasong Tamo Ext., Brgy. Magallanes, Makati City.
Departing from a relationship that continues to art making, Reamillo, who was based in Perth for over a decade, and British-Australian Lea show the lines crossed culturally in their respective series that take into consideration the socio-political climates of both the Philippines and Australia.
