The works of the 60 contemporary Filipino artists featured in the exhibition 'Room 307: Inkling, Gutfeel and Hunch' are reflective of the shifts and fissures in recent art making. The images, objects and spaces brought forth by this specific community of artists defy easy categorization, operating on the slips and accidents that can occur in the creative process. Merging idea, expression and relation, their works oscillate between doubt, probability and other ambiguous markers of contemporary life. As part of the opening of the National Art Gallery’s new Contemporary Art Projects, the exhibition provides an opportunity to contemplate on the state of contemporary art in the Philippines. Responding to the context of the space, the artists in the exhibition hint at the underlying issues that affect contemporary art in the country, questioning everything from its formal properties to its place in the world.
