Tile works. Edwin Coscolluela’s latest exhibit at Galleria Duemila consist of his glass tiles on plywood, a visual rendering that saw its stages in Adobe Illustrator and finally composed into concreteness through small, colored glass tiles that are in modes of abstraction. Inspired mainly by the movements of nature, Edwin Coscolluela’s works saw various dynamisms and active gestures that the artist claims to crave.
Creating an image out of many other tiles, the works of Coscolluela are mosaic in nature and a testament to his artistry of non-representational art, gaining inspiration from the momentary, transitory scenes in the environment surrounding him.
Curling, a 163 cm x 120 cm composition, made up of grays, whites and blacks, with a curvilinear subject draws the eyes in a fluid, whirlwind loop of gradient-like positioning of tiles despite the rigidness of the material used.
Written in the stars, a 240 cm x 60 cm work is evident of Coscolluela’s eye for imagery and his command of materials. All works are but inspired of ordinary circumstances turned into an otherwise sophisticated form of art.
Edwin Coscolluela has participated in more than 100 shows from 1973 up to the present. He is a trained photographer and a retired instructor for more than 36 years.
Tileworks will open on March 17 – April 28, 2018. Opening Reception is on March 17, Saturday at 4pm.
Galleria Duemila is located at 210 Loring St. 1300 Pasay City.
