an aging double : A Group Exhibition

A+ WORKS of ART is pleased to present ‘An Aging Double’, an exhibition featuring Jan Balquin, Lesley-Anne Cao, Jed Gregorio, Lou Lim, Miguel Lorenzo Uy, and Issay Rodriguez, curated by Gary-Ross Pastrana.

An Aging Double, featuring works by Jan Balquin, Lesley-Anne Cao, Jed Gregorio, Lou Lim, Issay Rodriguez, and Miguel Lorenzo Uy, opens at A+ Works of Art in Kuala Lumpur, organized by Gary-Ross Pastrana. The exhibition takes its cue from Jean Baudrillard’s reflection that “an aging double ends up being confused with the real thing,” itself inspired by Borges’s tale of an empire whose desire to create a faithful map became as vast as the territory it described. First staged in Manila, the exhibition returns for a second act, like a delayed echo finally finding its way back. Through a new set of drawings, paintings, sound, video, and site-specific installations, this iteration further reflects on our shared impulse to map, trace, copy, mirror, and reenact.
