Patricia Perez Eustaquio (b. 1977, Cebu, Philippines; lives and works in Benguet Province, Philippines) works across painting, drawing, sculpture, and the languages of fashion, decor, and craft. Her practice reconciles these intermediary forms through a sustained inquiry into the integrity of appearances and the vanity of objects. Images of detritus, carcasses, and decay are embedded in meticulous handwork, merging what is maligned or marginal with what is celebrated and desired. From ornately contoured canvases to fabric-shrouded sculptures, arrivals as fragments, shadows, or memories signal aspiration and a desire to be desired. Wrought objects in furniture, textile, brass, and glass, often produced in manufactured settings, test the mutability of perception and the cultural construction of desirability. Recognition includes residencies at Art Omi in New York and Stichting Id11 in the Netherlands, and exhibitions such as The Vexed Contemporary at the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design, Manila; That Mountain is Coming at the Palais de Tokyo, Paris; and An Atlas of Mirrors at the 2016 Singapore Biennale. She received the Cultural Center of the Philippines Thirteen Artists Award.
