EYE GALLERY

1151 Mission Street

San Francisco, CA, 94103

Part 1: The Eldorado of the Orient, 2hrs. Part 2: Last Name Spanish, 2 hrs. 20 min. Jun Jalbuena is a Philippine-born artist based in San Francisco who works with Writing, Media Installations and Performance and has been an Editor and Graphic Designer of Cinematograph. A compression of 4 years work, THE LOOKING DYNASTY is a multi-sensual event that confronts conditions of the outsider in terms of a shifting edge or skin, colonies as covers of cultures. “The encounter is a light dinner affair where movement is possible, like departure and re-entry, in how departure can be viewed as a beginning. It’s a kind of Journalism that’s twisted, twisted toward a possible other, like truth. It’s like conducting an interview, inter-viewing a fish, that look-inside, thick like tragedy, tradition and romance, an envelope of dreams.” – J.J.
