In her latest exhibition, Yvonne Quisumbing lays down an account that calls for a slowing down and delving deep into the knowledge of the self to counter the anxieties of a nation.
‘Cartomancer’ is the third in the Apothecary series inspired by Dr. Eduardo Quisumbing's Medicinal Plants of the Philippines (1951, 1978), an acclaimed catalogue of common Philippine flora with healing properties published to alleviate the suffering of Filipinos during post-war Philippines.
In a bid to likewise glean through recent national and global tragedies, this most recent part of the series sets its unflinching gaze at our uncertainties amidst accelerating flux.
