My observation on some paintings...

 
Philippine deep   
manuel lotsu q. manes
oil on canvas
“Symbolism”


"What I see in this painting is a family drowning, gasping for air to survive. Just like in our everyday life, many people struggles to survive everyday."



steal life   
Salvador corpuz sierra
Acrylic on canvas
“Symbolism”


"This art work reminds me of the ice age. Today, we are already experiencing extreme weather changes and disturbances. We should take care of our Mother Earth because if the global warming increase fast, we might have to be like this art work. Living inside a freezer to survive."


spoliarium   
Juan luna
oil on canvas
“Symbolism”


"To me, this painting shows suffering of the people of his native country from colonial rule. Fallen gladiators are being dragged to an unseen pile of corpses in a dark chamber beneath."
