Old Lenses, New Frames is an online exhibition by Filipino artist, Lec Cruz.
Cruz is known for his hypnotic and often tranquil dreamscapes with a macabre quality to his works. This body of work is existential and symbolic in nature – languid every day scenes are reposed and altered into unsettling imagery that fuses animate and inanimate objects with vibrant colours and thick application of paint. In conceptualising Old Lenses, New Frames, Cruz took cues from history, personal experiences, and utopic ideals to materialise unspoken stories and temporality.
