Carl Modelo b. 1994 in Manila, PhilippinesCarl Modelo studied Fine Arts, majoring in Painting, at EARIST (Eulogio“Amang” Rodriguez Institute of Science and Technology). He has beenparticipating in group shows since 2014, including those held at Art in thePark, Manila Fame and Xavier Art Fair.With layering and dry brush techniques in his acrylic paintings, his pieces birthcharacters that are equal parts candy-sweet and salty as tears. Having beenfascinated by Fernando Botero’s works in his student days, he too startedpainting rotund and voluptuous figures with magnanimous personalitiesinspired by FIlipino pop-surrealist Luis Lorenzana’s quirky characters, thenmoved on to oddballs of his own invention – coneheads in pinks and purpleshe calls wanderers, each creature sporting its very own disposition and storywith emotionally expressive faces as their bodies. Lines make up for limbsas they hop, skip and dance across the minimally-adorned canvas, at timesaccompanied by text that add a layer of significance as it expounds on theimage.As such, Modelo’s figures appear as suited to posters, and portraits, or evensurrealistic dreamscapes as they are to simple backdrops, their colorfultemperaments plainly on show for the audience to enjoy. With most of hisartworks based on his past experiences and cartoons, no limit seems to bein sight for this promising young artist as he looks towards producing limitededition toys and pieces of sculpture out of his wanderers, all while working forhis first solo exhibition.4
