Jessa Almirol
Exhibited Artist
Filipina artist Jessa Almirol’s oeuvre is named after the term “Pantsdrunk,” which is originated from an asocial Finnish culture referring to the act of drinking alone without loneliness, wearing little to nothing to show having no intention to go out. Jessica sees it as an art of relaxation and her form of meditation, the authentic way of relaxing without telling or announcing to anyone and eventually leading her to solitude. Her “Pantsdrunk” series reflects her personal emotions. In her current works, she wishes to encourage people to be humble and appreciative of great humanity and all living things including animals for the universe is greater than our existence.
