Lexygius Sanchez Calip’s works and practice query the weight of gestures, expressed through viable, ecological, and unconventional approaches and methodologies, in confrontation of ‘art’ and its common traditions. Through thoughtful, sensorial, and conceptually driven actions and provocations (often frivolous in nature), the trivial, metaphorical, and philosophical milieu of his works, which He regards as dialogues, highlight his contextual inquiries and explorations concerning human experiential circumstances towards the temporal, the transitory, and the natural aspects of the world. The gestural attribute of his work articulates the existential facets of life, mutual lived experiences, that humans endure as temperamental creatures.
—”My practice is where my art and philosophy are in accord. It is where they are malleable, yielding each other’s form. It is where my sensibilities discern into something tangible, and how that form it takes becomes wiser and clever. A palimpsest, where the invisible is felt, heard, and seen again—where its wary presence gleams a profound consciousness.”
